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? [Chorus:] 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 [Chorus:] 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.
