Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] The salt is thick on every pane I taste the iron in the rain My hands are cold, my spirit's frayed Within this tower that I've made The wick is low, the oil is thin Just like the skin I'm living in [Pre-Chorus] Lightning splits the heavy cloud The ocean's voice is screaming loud I climb the spiral to the top Until the world and heartbeat stop I reach the lens, I touch the glass And watch the heavy shadows pass [Chorus] Let the beam cut the dark Catching every dying spark Across the roiling, velvet sea Where you are waiting there for me Oh, the light is all we own Guiding every sailor home [Post-Chorus] Burning bright Through the night Guiding home Through the foam [Verse] I find your logbook in the lens Where every broken story ends Your ink is weathered, gold, and deep A sacred promise that you keep "I'll be the star, I'll be the way" I hear the words you used to say [Pre-Chorus] You aren't lost beneath the foam You are the wind that leads them home The spray is catching starlight now Upon the ghost of every prow The fire burns a brighter blue Because it's fueled by thoughts of you [Chorus] Let the beam cut the dark Catching every dying spark Across the roiling, velvet sea Where you are waiting there for me Oh, the light is all we own Guiding every sailor home [Bridge] The synth brass roars against the tide With nowhere left for fear to hide Taiko thunder, strings of fire Lifting up this heart's desire You are the ghost within the flame Calling out every sailor's name The minor heart begins to break For every life that you will save [Build-up] I see you now I feel you now The storm is breaking The world is waking [Chorus] Now the beam breaks the night Bathed in redemptive, holy light Across the calm and silver sea I know you're standing next to me Oh, the light is all we own And you have finally come home [Post-Chorus] Home to the shore Lost no more Home to the light Ending the night We are the flame We are the same [Outro]
