Light & Night (FULL VERSION)

Lyrics

[PART I: NIGHT] We ought to leave a light on Leave a light on Underneath the moon Sitting in the sight of every eye I can feel them stew Open the window, look out and see me Slow, I am coming a long way to be An accidental item Such as I am Mother's only son Ever is the light on Is the light on ever meant to run? Cold, but I'm outside and waiting to see A glow in the snow, coming closer to me Tonight, I'm arriving alive and alight Tonight, all the black, and the grey and the white And I want to be like You are the onе light I want to see your Eyes, looking back and out through mine Bettеr when the light comes in the night-time Opening the door Hoping to be right, it's open every night So what'cha waiting for? Open your window, look out and see them Tines stabbed through eyes that the sides have condemned Tonight, I'm arriving alive and alight Tonight, all the black, and the grey and the white And I want to be like You are the one light I want to see your Eyes, looking back and out through mine Something is real Maybe not Something is gone Something is here Only thought What do you want? Everything else will fade away Tonight, I'm arriving alive and alight Tonight, all the black, and the grey and the white And I want to be like You are the one light I want to see your Eyes, looking back and out through mine [PART II: LIGHT] I tried to leave the light on, but the bright sun eclipsed its feeble beams And sitting in the sight of that which blinds tore me at the seams Harsh palpitations that tunneled my view Eyesight grew warped, distorted and skewed An accidental item. Hear the light hum by the lonely son Striving to be right, I fight this sordid fight against the other one Cold? Sure I am, but I can't help but be Transmute the pain 'to kinetic energy Tonight, you've survived out of pity and spite All night, you have vied for your place in the light But I won't be split in two Won't be him or you We will be combined, whether that be dead or alive Let's blur these lines Languish in the numbers, falling under Drowning in the code The questions we have pondered, time we've squandered Don't you feel we're owed? Please, help decipher this life that we lead For each step that we take, the answer takes three Humility's a virtue; pride, a sin Or so it has been said But every time I've hurt you - or at least tried to You've laughed and smiled instead Kicked, scorned and damned by the forces that be Not ever once did you fall to your knees Tonight, we've survived out of pity and spite All night, we have vied for the black or the white But I want to be like You are the one light I want to see your eyes looking back and into Mine Something will heal, lost in thought Something has dawned Something must feel, lest they rot Something has shone All of the else will fade away We ought to leave a light on Leave a light on underneath the moon Sitting in the sight of every eye I believe in you Open the window, look out and see me That sad, sulking mess; this human you're being Tonight, I'm arriving alive and alight Tonight, all the black, and the grey and the white And I want to be like Meek is the one light I want to see your Eyes looking back and out through mine With doubt consigned to drought Let ardour sprout, 'cos Tonight, I'm surmising the sum of my parts Alight, twined in Mind, and in Soul, and in Heart Could thrive, live, combined as one Fuse the moon and sun Change your point of views Let us variate these hues
