In Light In Me

how am I supposed to write about hope with catchy hooks and melodies and make you sing along
 well I titled this whole album before I tried to write a song
 and the truth is hope can me a burning sun
 the closer that you seem to get the quicker you get lost in the sight of
 it keeps casting it's shadow of our burdens behind us and the more we try stand inside the light
 the more a darkness seems to grow
 is darkness the shade where I've found peace
 so maybe this time I need to be standing for someone to believe
 like a weathered oak with know hope carved in me
 so maybe this time I need to be standing for someone to believe
 you can take the life from me but I'll always be here standing, still
 every time you need me
 hope is at the root but each day
 it's still casting a shadow of my darkness behind me
 and the more I try to show you with the light
 the more a darkness seems to follow
 you will never change what you refuse to face
 like a shadow we always grow every time we try to find the light
 maybe this time I need to be me
 you don't know who you are anymore
 tonight I don't know either but we are standing still
 we can't be moved
 when hope is at the root of you
 every time the wind grows still and I continure to lose movement
 you are there to walk up chin down and carve your name
 every time the wind grows still and life pushes you further
 come carve your name
 know hope in me
