What can i do?

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. [x8]
