Burning Bright

Lyrics

[Verse 1] They stole you far away To the end of the sea From rib and clay My lantern and key [Verse 2] Home is the narrow and wide reaches of our shared scars On tomorrow's horizon, I wait To believe I choose to see [Pre-Chorus] When the sun is down Show me how to reflect like the moon The key is in my hands and I choose to burn bright Safe years behind me burn bright [Chorus] I know now I am not alone You've always found me in the deep of night I could die well here before morning comes Because I can see all the lights of the sun in your eyes [Verse 3] We spoke of lovely things With guards not listening We made plans to escape Like in the movies Confiding in scripts Kindling in secret Our home discrete In captors' keep [Verse 4] In quiet still small moments Wait till they leave us alone And don't look back Cross with me over the threshold My inimitable half In quiet still small moments I hear you breathe and I remember I am alive I am alive I found you under distant stars Distant stars You saw me through my deepest dark [Chorus] (I can see all the lights of the sun in your) I know now I am not alone You've always found me in the deep of night I could die well here, before morning comes Because I can see all the lights of the sun in your eyes [Bridge] Home is the narrow & wide reaches of our shared scars On tomorrow's horizon I can see all the lights of the sun in your eyes (Sun in your eyes) The key is in my hands and I choose to burn bright Safe years behind me burn bright
