Four pillars of light
Shining high
For those who will accept it
For light is what they truly need

Four pillars of light
Standing tall
Standing strong
Stand for those who won’t

Four pillars of light
A most majestic scene
One which seems as though
It will last an eternity



For pillars of light
Once so strong
Now falling
One by one.

After all this
Fallen it has still not
For even when others give up
I will not
