[Verse 1]

I was at my weakest state and you kept me pushing on

You gave me something to believe in and it keeps me standing strong

Yeah, these lessons that I've learned, these things I'll carry on

And when you're gone I'll honor you each day, however long

[Chorus]

This glimmer of hope was never enough

To guide me through the darkness like a diamond in the rough

I held out for and I received a pain

That never left with no reprieve

Like a toast at a table where resentments run free

There can't be any truth where there's no honesty

[Verse 2]

Like an apple from the tree you were lock jawed in your ways

A reminder of myself in those long forgotten days

Thought you'd stayed off my path, but I just couldn't see

That the blood that's in your veins is the same that runs through me

[Chorus]

This glimmer of hope was never enough

To guide me through the darkness like a diamond in the rough

Yeah, I held out for and I received

A pain that never left with no reprieve

Like a toast at a table where resentments run free

There can't be any truth where there's no honesty

[Bridge]

I had it all but lost my faith

And then you lead me to it

Today I'll carry on

I had all but lost my faith

And now I've renewed it

These things I'll carry on

[Chorus]

This glimmer of hope was never enough

To guide me through the darkness like a diamond in the rough

Yeah, I held out for and I received

A pain that never left with no reprieve

Like a toast at a table where resentments run free

There can't be any truth where there's no honesty
