1 We’re all dying together That nearing forever It consumes me There’s no denying That I’d be lying If I said I was coping all right with it
Chorus: But I gotta chest that burns a fearless red Everytime that you are near You illuminate the darkness That I find myself living within
2 Cos I was wandering lost Just trying to join the dots Paint a picture of a life That wouldn’t fade nor rot
But there’s no denying (I was hollow) You poured the light in (dark before) Brought a purpose to my life (you came along and lit me up so)
Chorus: Cos I gotta chest that burns a fearless red Everytime that you are near You illuminate the darkness That I find myself living within
3 Cos it hurts a whole lot To be on your own In this world that is not Built for being alone And when I’m sunk again Desperate for some meaning And I can’t dispel The cavernous empty feeling
*** Inside Make everything alright Ignite My will to life ***
So lay me down on my bed Make an incision across my chest Expose my insides pull out the wet Wood of previous failed attempts Fill me up with moments blessed Douse me down with incendiary words that you’ve said Fuel to last me until I’m dead Strike a match and watch the fire spread
Now I gotta chest that burns a fearless red Every time that you are near You illuminate the darkness That I find myself living within
Chorus:
Now I gotta chest that burns a fearless red Everytime that you are near You illuminate the darkness That I find myself living within
I was hollow full of dark before (I was hollow dark before) Now I’m spilling light from my incandescent core (you came along and lit me up so) Burning brightly with a purpose and truth (burning brightly a purpose and truth) Oh bringer of light I owe it all to you (oh bringer of light)
