Lyrics
Illuminant
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In our time
Oh, you never know for sure
While you follow the people
Who really got nothing on you
Why do they make you feel small?
Anyway
In silence
It's alright
You can be the beautiful one
Shine a light
On broken signs
Between language and thought
Holding onto fictions you want to believe
Or an ignorant bliss to set you free
Anyway
And when it's gone, it's gone for you like all of us
Want to belong, belong here
And when it's gone, it's gone for you like anyone
Wants to belong, belong here
Wants to belong
Wants to belong here
Anyway
How the light
How the light
How does the light get in?
How the light
How the light
How the light gets in
I hope you work it on out
