The Lighthouse

This place is set to break
It's just as safe for me outside tonight
And I want that
I face the storm's apetite
From the lighthouse
And I want that
I embrace the storm and the night
Whole
What do the waves have to say now?
What do the waves have to say, now, now?
Slow now
I let the waves have their way
Now, now
Slow
I let the waves have their day
And I want that
Here I've been living, unloosened from sin
Upward and outward
Begin, begin
Here I've been loosened, unliving within
Inwardly urgent
I'm sinking again
The lighthouse
