When The World Gets Dark

It's not the wins you take
It's not how much you get paid
It's the plans you make and if you see them through
It's not how far you go
Don't matter who or what you know
It's the strength you show when when your fortune turns on you

Cos just when you think you've got it all
If your house of cards should slowly start to fall
Would you just give in or give until your last
Would you lash out at everyone you love
When the world gets dark

It's not your choice of faith
It's not the things that you forsake
It's the world you make for those around you
It's not the thrills you chase
It's not a saviour showing you the way
It's the meaning that you take from finding truth

Cos just when you think you've found your path
What if that guiding light was just a fleeting spark?
Would you surrender to the wind or cling on to the past?
Perhaps we only find out who we are
When the world gets dark

And I still don't know how all these broken pieces fit
But sometimes I feel like I have stole a glimpse

Now Im not perfect babe
I know you know how much thats true
And every time Im lost I turn to you

But just when you think Im falling short
With every closed reply and every childish remark
No matter when no matter where you are
I'll always be there for you
Yeah I'll be there to pull you through
And I will hold this light for you
When the world gets dark
