๐ Lyrics
Long before the colours start to bleed
I can see the painting come alive
Clever like an angel in disguise
Moving in and out of reach
If the candle lights this crooked path
Like a lighthouse peering through the haze
I will find a river through the rain
And I'll reach the water's edge
Shed your light on me (Shed your light on me)
Bear my guide so I can see
Shed your light on me (Shed your light on me)
Bear my eyes so I can see the bigger picture
Like a mother by the fire in torment of pain
Prophecies and blessing and pain
One must bear this cross alone
There's no one who's to blame
With each tragic fall another ship explodes her soul
I am carried by the current on a slow and steady pull
Shed your light on me (Shed your light on me)
Bear my guide so I can see
Shed your light on me (Shed your light on me)
Bear my eyes so I can see the bigger picture
I'm caught in a moment
I've been lost and can't find my way
I'm all alone
I was wrong at every turn, in every way
Would you talk me off the ledge
Or let me take the fall
Better to try and fail than to never try at all
Come on, let me hear you out there
You live but cannot see
Talk but never speak
You live but cannot breathe
I see but I don't believe
Wounds that never heal
A heart that cannot feel
A dream that is all too real
A stare that speaks to you
I've listened to the stories of resentment and dismay
I've looked into the empty eyes of a man that has failed
I'll take a note from my heart's note and try it all on my own
When I see the distant lights illuminate the night
Then I will know
I'm not alone
I can see the painting come alive
Clever like an angel in disguise
Moving in and out of reach
If the candle lights this crooked path
Like a lighthouse peering through the haze
I will find a river through the rain
And I'll reach the water's edge
Shed your light on me (Shed your light on me)
Bear my guide so I can see
Shed your light on me (Shed your light on me)
Bear my eyes so I can see the bigger picture
Like a mother by the fire in torment of pain
Prophecies and blessing and pain
One must bear this cross alone
There's no one who's to blame
With each tragic fall another ship explodes her soul
I am carried by the current on a slow and steady pull
Shed your light on me (Shed your light on me)
Bear my guide so I can see
Shed your light on me (Shed your light on me)
Bear my eyes so I can see the bigger picture
I'm caught in a moment
I've been lost and can't find my way
I'm all alone
I was wrong at every turn, in every way
Would you talk me off the ledge
Or let me take the fall
Better to try and fail than to never try at all
Come on, let me hear you out there
You live but cannot see
Talk but never speak
You live but cannot breathe
I see but I don't believe
Wounds that never heal
A heart that cannot feel
A dream that is all too real
A stare that speaks to you
I've listened to the stories of resentment and dismay
I've looked into the empty eyes of a man that has failed
I'll take a note from my heart's note and try it all on my own
When I see the distant lights illuminate the night
Then I will know
I'm not alone
