to numb the pain and stop the world spinning round and round
but how was i to know that in my mind i'm not so pure
look into my eyes you can see i'm many different people
you shone a light on my life
you shone a light on my life
i force it down to throw it up and start all over again
but i will climb a tower to stick my flag on top
and look down on everyone
help me to salute the people
you shone a light on my life
you shone a light on my life
you have tried to resist the pain
but you know you're not alone
i have tried to resist the pain
you shone a light on my life
you shone a light on my life
