Light House

When I couldn’t see you for the wall

What was that you said?

What was that you said, before you called?

And when I couldn’t catch you for the fall

What was that you said?

What was that you said?

“Nothing hurts this much”

But I’ve seen the way

That bodies lie

And bodies tend to break

And I’ve been away

I’ve been away too long

Too long to be afraid

But you know

What you know is better

Is brighter

And you know

You know

What you know is better

Is brighter

And this is where we were, when I showed you the dark

Inside of me, in spite of me

On a bench in the park

You said to me:

“This is not you.

This is not you..

This is not you…”

But I’ve seen the way

That bodies lie

And bodies tend to break

And I’ve been away

I’ve been away too long…

And I don’t know a better place

But you know

What you know is better

Is brighter

And you know

You know

What you know is better

Is brighter

And this is where we were, when I showed you the dark

Inside of me, in spite of me

On a bench in the park

And this is where we are

In your bed, in my arms

Outside of me

In spite of, ‘we’

I showed you the dark

And you said to me:

“You know

What you know is better

Is brighter”

“And you know, you know

What you know is better

Is brighter”
