A candle lights my way back home
Back through all the times and the places I have roamed
The light that shines kills the shadows of the past
The misfortunes I am leaving you are going to be the last

A change is coming, I promise
It has taken a while to prepare for all this
Well, I'm not afraid of what the future holds
Cause it surely leads me out of my own cold

A candle lights my way back home
Back through all the times and the places I have roamed
The light that shines kills the shadows of the past
The misfortunes I am leaving you are going to be the last

I know it's hard to understand though
I've made up my mind and it's time for me to go
I thank you for the times we've had
As you read these lines I'm already dead

A candle lights my way back home
Back through all the times and the places I have roamed
The light that shines kills the shadows of the past
The misfortunes I am leaving you are going to be the last
