tenebrist

i'm on the corner

of hope

fear

and desire

i'm the sum of what i've done

which is to say i'm really no one

show me the evidence

yeah

'cause i can't see what you can sense

this old jukebox is busted

i'm too tired to be trusted

better sing yourself to sleep

i am your charlatan

a two-way mirror to my following

i'll still be ringing in your ears

long after every coast is clear

and all the lights are low

we all muddy the water

oh

to make it seem less shallow

if our grief grows like a shadow

and in the morning that's alright

we need the dark to know the light

i am the color of forgiveness

i am the shape of what is wrong

and time

our likely hero

always there but never here

though

just sits waiting for himself

we all muddy the water

oh

to make it seem less shallow

if our grief grows like a shadow

and in the morning that's alright

we need the dark to know the light

we all muddy the water

oh

to make it seem less shallow

if our grief grows like a shadow

and in the morning that's alright

we need the dark to know the light

we need the dark to know the light

we need the dark to know the light

we need the dark to know the light
