Green Day - See The Light Lyrics






Well I crossed the river
Fell into the sea
Where the non-believers go beyond belief
Then I scratched the surface
In the mouth of hell
Running out of service in the blood I fell

Well I, I just want to see the light
And I, I don't want to lose my sight
Well I, I just want to see the light
And I need to know what's worth the fight

Well I've been wasted
Pills and alcohol
And I've been chasing
Down the pool halls
Then I drank the water from a hurricane
And I set a fire just to see the flame

Well I, I just want to see the light
And I, I don't want to lose my sight
Well I, I just want to see the light
And I need to know what's worth the fight

Well I crossed the desert
Reaching higher ground
Then I pound the pavement to take the liars down
But it's gone forever, but never too late
Where the ever after is in the hands of fate

Well I, I just want to see the light
And I, I don't want to lose my sight
Well I, I just want to see the light
And I need to know what's worth the fight

    [Intro]

    Well, I crossed the river
    Fell into the sea
    Where the non-believers
    Go beyond belief
    Then I scratched the surface
    In the mouth of hell
    Running out of service
    In the blood I fell

    [Chorus]
    Well I, I just want to see the light
    And I, I don't want to lose my sight
    Well I, I just want to see the light
    And I need to know what's worth the fight

    I've been wasted
    Pills and alcohol
    And I've been chasing
    Down the pool halls
    Then I drank the water
    From a hurricane
    And I set a fire
    Just to see the flame

    [Chorus]
    Well I, I just want to see the light
    And I, I don't want to lose my sight
    Well I, I just want to see the light
    And I need to know what's worth the fight

    Well, I crossed the desert
    Reaching higher ground
    Then I pound the pavement
    To take the liars down
    But it's gone forever
    But never too late
    Where the ever after
    Is in the hands of fate

    [Chorus]
    Well I, I just want to see the light
    And I, I don't want to lose my sight
    Well I, I just want to see the light
    And I need to know what's worth the fight

    W.... F....

    Track 1?

    W.... F....

    It's not a real song.

    W.... F....

    @William Fernet-Ducharme K

    W.... F....

    William Fernet-Ducharme no love for peacemaker?

    W.... F....

    @DVCL25 Peacemaker is a decent song but there are much better songs in the album overall. Not the worst song but still decent.

  10. D.... -....

    I just listened to the whole album, pretty cool. Really enjoyed all of the songs.

  11. H.... ....

    "Well I...I just died in your arms tonight, it must've been something you said."

    H.... ....

    EXACTLY

  12. R.... M....

    So Christian kills himself or is thrown off a building. And I assume Gloria has the lobotomy.

    R.... M....

    i dont know a damn thing about this albums story other than there are two people named christian and gloria

  13. T.... S....

    First time listening to the album, 10 years after it's release

  14. D.... M....

    This feels like an archetypal story of disillusionment and crisis. When whatever you put faith in betrays you, you feel lost, and like all the time you put in to get there was wasted. You have no idea where to go now. The feelings of betrayal and loss can bring about thoughts of suicide, apathy, and even psychopathy. You have to retool your brain to follow your own heart instead of the predestined path that was initially chosen for you. "But it's gone forever, Never too late, where the ever after is in the hands of fate."

    D.... M....

    I put my faith in God and I'll tell when I feel betrayed. You'll be waiting a long time, or maybe forever.

    D.... M....

    i could barely read this, but id rather put faith in myself and my friends than a spirit, since sometimes, the only thing you have is yourself :)

    D.... M....

    @rosy probably you always have God. He will never leave you. He is closer to us than a brother. He said so.

  15. C.... C....

    If you play the opening of 21st Century Breakdown at 1.25 speed does it sound like See The Light?

  16. S.... s....

    Dedicated to my mate jaydan

  17. S.... s....

    Dedicated to my friend jaydan

  18. A.... ....

    That album went on for too long.

    A.... ....

    I mean, yeah 18 songs is lengthy but at least its good lol

  19. [.... m....

    It should be illegal for an album to be this awesome.

  20. A.... M....

    Favorite album by far. Along with the trio albums, Kerplunk!, etc., this album is so underrated and underplayed. Every single song on this album gets me going. I could listen to Green Day's music all day long. This album especially makes me See the Light when I need it.

  21. k.... ....

    I "see the light" at the end of the tunnel it looks like billy

    k.... ....

    Billie*

    k.... ....

    Billie*

    k.... ....

    *Billie

    Edit your comment Nimrod.

    k.... ....

    Its *Billie*

    k.... ....

    Its BILLIE sacrilege

  22. B.... D....

    Favorite Green day Album and this such a good song

  23. L.... p....

    Not gonna lie. I found this song because the lyrics were written on the walls in the 21 Guns music video and I looked them up.

    L.... p....

    Cordell Begay Which one?? I enjoy them both very much so but for euphoric reasons I enjoy 21 guns a little more.

    L.... p....

    Lil peanut Oh ok, at least you enjoy both songs

    L.... p....

    I just found the album here and listened to the whole thing.

    L.... p....

    I also bought the album and it is one of their best ones

    L.... p....

    pills and alcohol

  24. T.... ....

    The more I listen to this album, the more I love it! Such an underrated album.

    T.... ....

    I wouldn't necessarily say it's underrated. I heard it was one of Green Day's best chart performances to date

    T.... ....

    Not really that underrated. Won a grammy for this album as well as being a top chart performer.

  25. J.... R....

    TURN OFF THE LIGHT, TURN OFF THE LIGHT!!!

  26. W.... ....

    The most underrated green day song in my opinion

    W.... ....

    The Judge's Daughter

    W.... ....

    What about nightlife? Oh that's just hated.

    W.... ....

    One of the most. Not the most underrated

    W.... ....

    on every single song on this album theres a comment that says "this song is underrated" 😂😂

    W.... ....

    What about the song green day from the first album?

  27. T.... M....

    This. Is. A. Song. Period.

    T.... M....

    Omg I never would have guessed, Thank you wise stranger for clearing my confution! (sarcasm)

    T.... M....

    oh my god youre right

  28. H.... T....

    Beginning is exactly the same as 21st century breakdown

    H.... T....

    UsernamesAre Stupid thats the point

    H.... T....

    UsernamesAre Stupid due to the fact that I can play both songs on my guitar, I am well aware of this fact, yes.

    H.... T....

    Oh wow I didn't know that thanks for telling me (Sarcasm)

    H.... T....

    Music Vidz 1.25 speed

    H.... T....

    its a tiny little bit faster but yeah theyre extremely similar

  29. p.... -....

    Thought it was 21st century breakdown at first

    p.... -....

    get trikt

    p.... -....

    breh -_-

    p.... -....

    "But it was me, Dio!"

    p.... -....

    Get bamboozled

  30. M.... ....

    This. Fucking. Song.
    This!!

  31. K.... C....

    Love this song, probably my favorite from 21st Century Breakdown

    K.... C....

    that's because it's the last song so it's made to start and end like 21st century bkdown to signal closure.
