Very Bright Future

Very Bright Future. Lyric and a little background.. 

I'm putting it out here - as so many people have asked about this song lyric....
(edited from an email...)

HI *** from Tajikstan!
Thank you for your very kind mail.

I don't ever like to include written lyrics as each person understands them to be what they want or need them to be...
I really like the idea of aural tradition for music (and learning!) and feel that for many people (especially in the west) that we are far too dependant on fast visual messages. I love listening and I'm glad that you do too. The ability to listen is great gift to us all.
Thank you that you are interested in this music...
I will type the lyric here for you...!!
As for the message in the song, many of us have faced pain right?
For me, the idea of the song is about not letting what has come before, dictate the colour of our present or future.
I let my choice of allowing the past dictate life to me for far too long!
I believe it is as we CHOOSE to move on (however difficult that may feel) and walk forward into our futures' - we are then able to finally begin to leave the past and its pain where it belongs.

VERY BRIGHT FUTURE
(andy sorenson)

I see a very bright future in front of me
I'm breathing in a light I've never known before
Every little thing every little thing you stole from me
I'm gonna give it all to the past,
and I'm not gonna let it last.... anymore

'cause I heard a little voice inside my head a telling me
I'm too old, not good enough, no longer beautiful
I'd rather be beautiful than spending my life trying to be beautiful
kick away the lies and the past
and you know I'm not gonna let them last anymore

I love my life and I will not let the darkness hold on anymore
I love this heartbeat pumping inside of me
I own my future and I'm gonna do the best
with what I've been given
I love my life I will walk on, to a very bright future.

Hey brother well you know there's a little light inside of you
Oh sister if someone came to steal that away
You stil got it in you still got it in you so don't give up
we got to believe in the light
then we dont have to fear the night anymore.

I love my life and I will not let the darkness hold on anymore
I love this heartbeat pumping inside of me
I own my future and I'm gonna do the best
with the days I've been given
I love my life I will walk on, to a very bright future.

I'm leavin these burdens by the side of the road
I'm not gonna carry such a heavy load
I move forward and wont look back
I choose to move forward and wont look back.
