lyrics

Rome is bleeding on a tall, tall hill, so put the light on
A sister dreams while the flood waters recede, so put the light on
We're salivating to the war slides, always hoping God's on our side
Put the light on, hey, put the light on

Refrain:
'Cuz in the shadows where, nothing matters
There, the darkness breeds while action sleeps in
In the light of day we’d have to make a play
That might just be for keeps

But there is plenty of blood on my hands, put light on
But the bones are steel here in my stance, put the light on
The baby is nursing from the funeral urn, as we stand and watch our island burn
So Put the light on, hey, hey put the light on

Refrain

Bridge:
Self Deception grows in the absence, the absence of light
in the absence of light

We're acclimated to a sick, grey world,
It doesn't matter which flag unfurls,
The buried corpses we know we've kept
They woke up and found us while we've slept
Put the light on,
Put the light on
Put the light on
Hey, put the light on

Refrain

A passionate singer-songwriter, DonnCherie's music is as eclectic as her many interests, with powerful lyrics and rhythmic melodies. An unrefined and soulful singer, she has a unique vocal style, that is both fresh and familiar at the same time. She's a bit Tracy, a bit Melissa and a whole lot of heart
