Let Your Past Save


Let your light shine for all to see.

So that those in darkness can be set free.

Smile through the troubling storms.

There's hope in the bonds that form.

 

Sometimes all we see is the heartbreak.

Asking for healing and why ther's so much pain. 

But open your eyes, let your heart awake,

Only you can understand those who see only rain.

 

So listen close to the broken cries,

And keep shining your bright light.

Show them it's okay to toss the disguise.

Your broken heart could save someone's life.
