The dark was all there was before He said, Let there be light And there I was, alone, afraid As I brightened up the night
I saw the world in monochrome And slowly lit the day And I was Light, the luminance But all I saw was grey
I knew I had a purpose but what kind I didn't know I always knew I'd one day let my true colours show The shades of grey and darkness used to dim my brightest hue I used to shine alone until the day that I met you
I used to think I wasn't there 'Cause in the dark I'm gone All green and blue and crimson hues Are black before the dawn
And so I met depression And it wouldn't let me go Until I found the light And I discovered how to glow
All my life I've been alone But deep down I've always known That somewhere out there someone Was created just for me
And with patience I believed With my red heart on my silver sleeve But now the light is here and I can see
