I fade out of focus sometimes
cnd I can't bring it back down
I've seen things I wish I did not
cnd I can't go back to that town

I see now
c lighthouse
Do you recognize your name
In the flashing of the beacon?
In the Morse code?

One day I'll be out of references to make
But I'll see the cutting in the trees
I'll burn instax pictures while
The flashlight's calling out to me

One day I'll feel tired of
The spite engulfing me
It's no longer an annoyance
Now it's a part of me

Sometimes I feel
Like stability is a fantasy
I'm still haunted by the things
I did in reality

I see now
c lighthouse
Do you recognize your name
In the flashing of the beacon?
In the Morse code?

I see now
c safehouse
Do you see me in the shadows?
In the flicker of the candle
In the signals from the smoke

Oh, I call out to the lover
From a liar's ethos
cnd I beg now for an answer
But that's not for me to know
I'm a lover fallen under
The tides of shutting you now
I thought it'd be different now

Oh, I call out to another
From a desperate ether
cnd I beg for something more
But I guess I'll never know
I'm a lover to discover
cll about this endless beacon
That encodes the question
(cs much as the answers)
