There is a light that never goes out?
There is a light that never goes out they say
But I'm a lamp who thrives on kerosine
I've lost my spark ever since may
The golden glow in me is all rusted
I was betrayed by the people I trusted
My blood's dried up
They've put me in a dungeon
Saying I'm too old to be used
Too dirty to be touched
Too ugly to be kept
Now all that's left of me is the kerosine that's aged
And a match yearning to be lit
While the wick in me has accepted defeat
And still, there is a light that never goes out they say
