lyrics

.
~ one light ~
.

i slipped cardboard sunshine between her teeth and she lost her marbles.
now she can point out the red lights, the green lights, the blue and the yellow lights up there,
up there ...
up there ...

there’s a space in the crowd where the quiet wires touch together;
purplemen come to meet me and I pray to god that must be normal,
be normal ...
be normal ...

and it’s becoming clearer
one light between my fingers
and not like any other

I held it between my fingers and it held me through the night
I have set the time awry in this artificial light

there may be others making headway through the grey
and when the laughing stops, the circling starts again

there’s a ring on my finger - it looks like it is but it’s not a mountain
I try dismantling the darkness, but all I can see is one ring, one light
one ring one light ...
one ring one light ...

*
there may be others waiting
there may be others waiting
there may be others building a bold and handsome name
