A spark soaring down through the pouring rain
And restoring life to the lighthouse,
A slow motion wave on the ocean,
Stirs my emotion up like, like a rain cloud.

When did the sky turn black?
And when will the light come back?

A cab driver turned to skydiver ,
Then to survivor,
Dying to breakdown.
A blood brother, surrogate mother,
Hugging each other, crying their eyes out

When did the sky turn black?
And when will the light come back?

I'm ecstatic like a drug addict
Locked in the attic,
Strung out and spellbound.

I fought all through the night,
Oh, oh, but I made it alive.
The sun's starting to rise,
Oh, oh, these are Beautiful Times.
This fight of my life is so hard, so hard, so hard,
But I'm gonna survive.
Oh, oh, these are Beautiful Times.

A bad feeling burned through the ceiling,
Leaving my healing heart with a new scar.
A dead fire rose, and rose higher
Like a vampire, up from the graveyard.

When did the sky turn black?
And when will the light come back?

We all suffer but we recover,
Just to discover life where we all are.

I fought all through the night,
Oh, oh, but I made it alive.
The sun's starting to rise,
Oh, oh, these are Beautiful Times.
This fight of my life is so hard, so hard, so hard,
But I'm gonna survive.
Oh, oh, these are Beautiful Times.
This fight of my life is so hard, so hard, so hard,
But I'm gonna survive.
Oh, oh, these are Beautiful Times.

My heart's burning bad,
And it's turning black,
But I'm learning how to be stronger,
And sincerely, I love you dearly,
Oh, but I'm clearly destined to wonder.
