Soon. I cannot see the shore
birds circling above
nothing is like it was before
I hear a voice talking, is it talking to me?
it says just a little moment longer and then I'll be free

lift the curse
baptise me
the dream is broken
I want to be reformed
let the light shine bright
I am just a child
in a twisted lullaby

my friend, the moon doesn't rise until late
despite my sleepy eyes, I haven't slept yet
half day and a night and now another day.
I am clean and ready
waves rise high around me now
but my legs are steady
arms to the sky

don't turn on the bright lights
don't turn on the bright lights
don't turn on the bright lights
don't turn on the bright lights
don't turn on the bright lights
don't turn on the bright lights

don't turn on the bright lights
just a wasteland
don't turn on the bright lights
just a wasteland
don't turn on the bright lights
just a wasteland
don't turn on the bright lights
just a wasteland

I'm clean and ready
waves rise high around me now
but my legs are steady
arms to the sky
