follow me

I've come a long way 

still further to go 

sometimes there's no reason 

that I see to keep going 

when I think it's too much 

and I'm ready to quit 

I hear your voice i

n the midst of it saying: 

I'll show you the path 

I'll show you the light 

I'll be here if you need me 

I am right by your side 

you are half-way there

don't give up now 

follow me, follow me 

the path I was on 

was crooked and wrong 

each corner I turned 

wasn't where I belonged 

hell bent on destruction, 

hurting those close 

then thunder was crashing

--saw lightning flashes 

and I heard a voice 

in the midst of it 

saying: I'll show you the path 

I'll show you the light 

I'll be here if you need me 

I am right by your side 

you are half-way there 

don't give up now

follow me, follow me
