Story Behind The Song

My stepson Tim brought this over 3/4 finished. Blew me away.

Song Description

When there's a lot of darkness in your heart, in your mind, in your soul....you have the power to change it...just let the light in.

Lyrics

If your life is just a dog and pony show
You never ease your mind or feed your soul
And your heart's drug down by an undertow
Created by things that you won't let go

Break down your bitterness, break out some blissfulness
Let the light in
Let go of your let downs, be free and be unbound
Let the light in

If you're frightened by things that you don't know
If you've been wronged by a friend or foe
Before you start a fight and go toe to toe
Remember what you reap is what you sow

Try some forgiveness, tend to your tenderness
Let the light in
Be blinded with kindness, be mindful not mindless
Let the light in

All those shadows in your heart
Can only live there in the dark

Complaining about those above and below
Is only sustaining your grief and woe
If you're only maintaining the status quo
You're never gaining and you'll never grow

Try out some humbleness, try on some thankfulness
Let the light in
Restate your gratefulness, embrace your graciousness
Let the light in
Let the light in...let the light in...let the light in....let the light in
Let the light in................let the light in
