There Was A Light

[Verse 1]
I stayed for better days, some progress we made
We empied out our pockets and we'd sprawl across the floor
Beneath the summer haze for what turned into days
We made a promise not to settle for a path towards the door

[Pre-Chorus]
My matches burn, we'd take our turns
Illuminating to reface
When all we know is what we're told
As in what I see has more at stake

[Chorus 1]
And I used to know what was right
Before I got so wounded in all this, a war with my mind
I used to swear there was light
But things keep getting darker and darker somehow
Well, I'm just so stuck

[Verse 2]
I feel like everybody tries to force some sort of action on me
There's better things in life, well, part of my reaction
I'm not following, your logic just seems cute
And I'm a little bit confused with what you're saying

[Chorus 1]
I used to know what was right
Before I got so wounded in all this, a war with my mind
I used to swear there was light
But things keep getting darker and darker somehow
Well, I'm just so stuck

[Chorus 2]
What happened to the light we were following?
What happened to the lines that led the way?
If everything we know depends on it
Then what will happen once they've gone away?

[Outro]
So be honest, is this what you wanted?
Was it a pool out of love to share with the world
Or just to break your mistakes?
So what's with love?
