Burning Bright - Phinehas

They stole you far away

To the end of the sea

From rib and clay

My lantern and key

Home is the narrow and wide reaches of our shared scars

On tomorrow’s horizon, I wait

To believe I choose to see

When the sun is down

Show me how to reflect like the moon

The key is in my hands and I choose to burn bright

Safe years behind me burn bright

I know now I am not alone

You’ve always found me in the deep of night

I could die well here before morning comes

Because I can see all the lights of the sun in your eyes

We spoke of lovely things

With guards not listening

We made plans to escape

Like in the movies

Confiding in scripts

Kindling in secret

Our home discrete

In captors' keep

In quiet still small moments

Wait till they leave us alone

And don’t look back

Cross with me over the threshold

My inimitable half

In quiet still small moments

I hear you breathe and I remember

I am alive

I am alive

I found you under distant stars

Distant stars

You saw me through my deepest dark

(I can see all the lights of the sun in your)

I know now I am not alone

You’ve always found me in the deep of night

I could die well here, before morning comes

Because I can see all the lights of the sun in your eyes

Home is the narrow & wide reaches of our shared scars

On tomorrow’s horizon

I can see all the lights of the sun in your eyes (Sun in your eyes)

The key is in my hands and I choose to burn bright

Safe years behind me burn bright
