"What is truth?", I ask myself
|
All religions boast absolute truth
|
But temptation is all that I find
|
As flesh craves overshadows the emptiness
|
On through the valley of blindness I roam
|
As voices whisper in the wind around
|
Calling me into the darkness beyond
|
Like the sound of sirens in the distance
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
From the valley of the shadows
|
Into the darkness beyond
|
Feel the calling of pleasures
|
Overshadow man's emptiness
|
|
My guiltiness bleeds internally
|
Inside tunnels of blocked emotions
|
The silent screams within my inner being
|
Bursting forth in desperation
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
Disillusionment fades
|
As I change my course
|
Rejection of pride through repentance
|
The answer revealed - messeanic deity
|
The judge paid the sinners debt
|
|
[CHORUS TWO]
|
|
From the valley of the shadows
|
Into the light of Crist
|
I follow the calling if righteousness
|
As shadows cringe from the brightness
|
|
Peace engulfs me
|
As I surrender my life
|
The entwinning of guilt is lifted away
|
Shadows are scattered by
|
The Lamb of God
|
Delivered from the
|
Abuse of substances
|
