Light of Day © Words and Music by Chris Chickering and Greg Barnhill 2012. All rights reserved So you gave it up on it Said it wasn't worth it anymore Said you got tired of banging on the door The world's just a joke outside You said as you watched it pass you by And so you let it make you cold inside But don't go believin' All of the voices Livin' in your head Sayin' hope is dead When there's nobody there When you're all alone And it’s just you and you Tryin' to make it through When there's nobody left Except the TV set Open up the shades And gaze into the light of day Gaze into the light of day Tired of the promising Tired of still waiting in the wings Tired of the nothin' Being everything You say to hell with it I don't really need this anymore But that's just the crazy in you ramblin’ It feels like forever But it's only a moment That's gonna pass you by Don't go sleepin’ with a lie When there's nobody there When you're all alone And it’s just you and you Tryin’ to make it through When there's nobody left Except the TV set Open up the shades And gaze into the light of day Gaze into the light of day When there's nobody there When you're all alone And it’s just you and you Tryin’ to make it through When there's nobody left Except the TV set Open up the shades Open up the shades When there's nobody there When you're all alone And it’s just you and you Trying to make it through When there's nobody left Except the TV set Open up the shades And gaze into the light of day
