Lights of Life - Donna Lewis

Remains lay smoking

Crawling little by little I can hardly breathe

Unprotected

Exposed to the numbing conditions I feel no pain

Fall in the snow

Dazed and confused

Paralyzed with fear

Huddled together for warmth in the trees

Where are the lights

Where is help

Only the silence

Oh help me Oh help me Oh help me Oh help me Still the sky was empty

Freezing fog descended

And a star begins to fall

Silence was an enemy

More hated than the cold

So we whispered stories to help us forget

Then out of the sky

Came the lights

Two tiny lights

I wanted to catch the Earth and the stars

No cruel mirage

A distant visage

The silence was broken

Out of the sky came the lights

Out of the night

Out of the fear came the strength the strength delayed

Out of the sky came the lights

The lights of life…

It was my birthday the day they found me Now I’m one week old

My life, from this moment, begins again

Out of the sky came the lights

Out of the night

Out of the fear came the strength delayed

Out of the sky came the lights

The lights of life…
