Lyrics:
Shadowboxing our pasts Do you remember the ghost caught your temple? Like lights out
Lights out In light of what don’t last Well I went back in time, saw the foundation sinking Asked my father, “What were the builders thinking?” Doubled back to here and you found me weeping Thought I’d surrendered, but I started singing It's alright All right Alright All right Fade away, fade away But I could never leave it Here to stay, here to stay Is all that gets us through There’s a place, there’s a place If we’re content with leaving Where everything’s new Oh, He makes everything new What a beautiful view Things time could never undo And I run as strong As my ’99 Ford in the heat Till it breaks down Break down When I’m late to my job I wanna be a child but now I’m poor and bleeding California cross to my jaw, just breathing Get out by a hair with my hair receding “That kid from Atlanta, he took quite a beating” but Swing away, swing away I’ll never stop believing Everything, everything The Maker’s hand can turn Free of faith, free of faith I never found a better reason Sometimes you have to unlearn All the ways your inner child got burned Cause now he’s taking his turn Yeah, joy is taking its... Like a toddler with a pen, I am Like a beggar with a gem, I am Like a dog who stays around for scraps From feasts of holy men, I am Like a toddler with a pen, I am Like a beggar with a gem, I am Like a dog who stays around for scraps From feasts of holy men, I am Like a toddler with a pen, I am Like a beggar with a gem, I am Like a dog who stays around for scraps From feasts of holy men, I am Like a toddler with a pen, I am Like a beggar with a gem, I am Like a dog who stays around for scraps From feasts of holy men, I am And I cannot keep
All the lights out No I cannot And I cannot keep All the lights out No I cannot
