I rise above the clouds
into a world once so bright
where now the shadows fall
and a thousand voices call

From atop my place above the clouds
while the voices cry aloud
I concentrate on the final spark
as all the world fades to dark

night has fallen but not all is lost
the small light begins to glow
as the green earth turns to frost
its radiance begins to show

I cast my voice throughout the sky
so all may hear me down below
as the echoes start to die
the spark begins to grow

I ask them to not give up the fight
for soon the dark shall turn to light
I ask for them to banish fear
as the dawn shall soon be here

down below i feel a shift
a great and evil change
they would not stand a chance
against its dark and burning rage

there was no time, i had to choose
between my life or the light
with no time to lose
and no small amount of fright

I step below the clouds
into a world as dark as night
where all the shadows fall
and a thousand voices call

I stand before the evil beast
the spark within my hand
i tell it to leave this place
and in fact, this i demand

It looks at me with eyes of hate
and a hunger yet to sate
I look right back and then i smile
as i surrender to my fate

I hold the spark in front of me
so that all can clearly see
what can become of night
when into it you unleash the light

fueled by a willing life

the beast it did not stand a chance
against the radiant wave's advance
all the shadows burned away
from the light, as bright as day

and with the passing of the day
my light and life then fade away
but the world remained renewed
and rebuilding then ensued

I rise above the clouds
into a world now set to right
where now the daylight falls
with a thousand joyous calls
