Do You See the Thread of Light? Lyrics

I walk across the bridge

And up the cracked old stairs

I've got no illusions, I know

I'm just a baby and

There's some things that you know are

Way to high to reach

But you still want to

Reach up, and!

It seemed like he really knew

What it really meant to be

Great and our eyes were

All on him, but

We got lost inside a nightmare and

My blood just felt cold

But he wasn't scared

Like he should have been, and

Someday I'll conquer all the stars

I'll pull them to my eyes

And see through them

And I'll meet all their children, and

Carol says she heard them

And wrote what they said

Down but he missed it

Because he already left

I want to see the morning

I want to feel the sunlight

And I want to see the stars

When all of this is over

I want to open my heart up to my friends

And tell them I love them

I want to read a book

And I want to draw a picture

I want to play a game

And stay up 'til the morning

And all of the smallest reasons to live, are good enough

I want to see the morning

I want to feel the sunlight

And I want to see the stars

When all of this is over

I want to open my heart up to my friends and tell them I love them

And even the petty reasons to live are good enough

Dust drifts in from the window to the floor

Illuminate against the walls where we once lived

Softly touch the broken music box

For a time when its song would still ease your mind

Chase a light through the haunted streets

For a chance that that your world might still be saved

Promise that you wont lose your way?

But your hand and your heart and your life might change

A flower blooms in cold blood

And I changed, and the world changed

A memory that once was warm

Is now only cold, and I walk away
