The Light Fades

The light fades but the wick still burns.
The world moves slower but it still turns.
You fight the current of a thrashing sea.
You fight for a stronger will to be.
Holding on to those who hold you tightly back.
Surrounded by love, something you'll never lack.
Whenever you feel the flame give way to darkest night.
Reach out your hand and step into our light.
We will always be here to brighten your day.
To offer you strength in any way.
Even the bravest soldier has moments of doubt.
You are not alone. If you need, call out.
We give to you, no more than you give to us.
You'd offer your flame and expect no fuss.
So accept the fact that we are here.
We give you support because to us, you are dear.
