| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| A short walk to the corner store
|
| Spilling small change in my hand
|
| A young man tore his body apart
|
| Right in front of my house on the train tracks
|
| The seals turned their heads to the smell of death
|
| Of broken bones or a spot of blood
|
| And police lights, flashlight, Christmas nights
|
| And celebrating that it wasn’t me this time
|
| Waking up in the same old scare
|
| It ain’t easy to believe
|
| We were born for something bigger than this
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| I imagined a pale, square painting in the hallway
|
| Where your portrait used to hang
|
| Your family couldn’t stand the heartache
|
| They took your picture down and left your room the same
|
| I ain’t ever let the scars write that
|
| But that’s all we have when people think of us when we’re dead
|
| We all find ourselves on the train tracks
|
| The good die young and the old die bitter singing
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| And my life flashed before my eyes
|
| And I didn’t care how we left it
|
| I’m still fighting through my twenties
|
| Waiting for someone to say I made it
|
| Golden boy, tiny pay check
|
| Big ideas, broken heartstrings
|
| Waking up in the same old scare
|
| It ain’t easy to believe
|
| We were born for something bigger than this
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| (Something bigger than this)
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| It don’t make much sense right now
|
| But it will all come together when the lights go out
|
| (Something bigger than this) |
