This Is The Light Lyrics - Good Riddance

I had a dream that I woke up in a sweat 

another self-inflicted nightmare I will not forget 

I felt a light 

I saw you shine something's wrong 

I felt that tremor in my soul 

that memory one last time 

this is the light 

this is the way 

where the darkness keeps the sun away 

this is the light 

this is the way 

this stream of memories that carries me away 

I know my head 

at least I thought I did 

I'd take a silver bullet through my soul if I could give 

this phantom friend 

this runaway train of thought 

somebody's been following me through every trial I've ever sought 

never sought 

these tears 

leave scars 

as they run down my face 

I'm changing 

I'm leaving now 

I'm leaving for a better place
