Lyrics/歌词
comes the night
5000 lumens
illuminate the sky
i am lucid
and 5000 eyes
all fixed to it
consuming light
back in the white room
theyre at the door
and when i find you
but dont recognise you anymore
there is a shadow
beneath your eyes
my visions narrow
but i know the sun'll rise
i dream in signs
and messages
bring themselves to light
and in my waking
you will be there
you will be waiting
you will be waiting
the shore finds our bodies
returns us to land
swept by the tide
and warmed by the sand
then i feel it crashing in
this kind of glow around everything
i never felt right
til i let it in
those homes we built
though out of sand
hold like cement
and in the dawn
meet no lament
so drifts the shoreline
that we once dreamt
you are beside me
but out of reach
exist outside me
utter no speech
but in my waking
you will be there
i will be waiting
i will be waiting
