lyrics

When the smoke began to clear
We were clinging to each other sharing breath
Like I'd awoke my heart alight
Finally found the spine to get back in the fight

Break down my walls to let the light in

You cleaned me up so I could grow
Followed through my phases of being hard to know
The twisting vines of my wistful wandering mind
Siren songs and secrets, wrongs you might've left behind

It's all I can do to try to deserve you

You are my star
The light I keep in sight in the gathering dark
I don't know who I'd be
Without you as my guide, so thanks for shining
All your light on me

Your love for the ignored
I feel it resonate
It towers, overpowers
When I'm adrift in hate
In my mind's upheaval
Beset by all these evils
I'm reaching out for you
Our place I always run to

You are my star
The light I keep in sight in the gathering dark
I don't know who I'd be
Without you as my guide, so thanks for shining
All your light on me
