[Relient K - What Can I Do? lyrics]
Where could darkness as dark as
This have come from?
Too far to see but we know that
We can sense that it exists
And how can I do anything but run from
The will to fight a fight for
Which I feel so ill-equipped?
But what can I do? I throw my hands up half
In anguish half in praise
When I try to count my blessings
I just see sorrow in a cage
But, I’m afraid, ‘cause what can I do?
If this didn’t horrify me, I’d be heartless
But every night I lay here paralyzed
But, I won’t be consumed
With all this darkness
Instead I find surprise within the light
But what can I do? I throw my hands up half
In anguish half in praise
When I try to count my blessings
I just see sorrow in a cage
But, I’m afraid, ‘cause what can I do?
Want to cast a light into this pit
If I only had a way
To restore the hearts of vile men to
The love from which they’ve strayed
But I’m afraid let one man find hope again
Maybe in his very own daughter’s life
Have him seize another man’s forearm, wrist
And hand before he takes
The opportunity to strike
Have those too grow close
In brotherhood in you
Give them all your strength and might
Let them be a poison to the darkness
As they bring it to the light
Darkness comes to light
This have come from?
Too far to see but we know that
We can sense that it exists
And how can I do anything but run from
The will to fight a fight for
Which I feel so ill-equipped?
But what can I do? I throw my hands up half
In anguish half in praise
When I try to count my blessings
I just see sorrow in a cage
But, I’m afraid, ‘cause what can I do?
If this didn’t horrify me, I’d be heartless
But every night I lay here paralyzed
But, I won’t be consumed
With all this darkness
Instead I find surprise within the light
But what can I do? I throw my hands up half
In anguish half in praise
When I try to count my blessings
I just see sorrow in a cage
But, I’m afraid, ‘cause what can I do?
Want to cast a light into this pit
If I only had a way
To restore the hearts of vile men to
The love from which they’ve strayed
But I’m afraid let one man find hope again
Maybe in his very own daughter’s life
Have him seize another man’s forearm, wrist
And hand before he takes
The opportunity to strike
Have those too grow close
In brotherhood in you
Give them all your strength and might
Let them be a poison to the darkness
As they bring it to the light
Darkness comes to light
