lyrics

ILLUMINATION

Today I thought about
All the things that bring me down
All the things that bring me closer to the edge
All we can talk about
And debate the ins and outs
Of whether the sword is mightier than the pen

So come on over, we can make out
Twist and turn the world around
Listen to the pages burn as we make love
Somewhere in the underdark
Illumination catches on
And we take shelter like moths drawn to a flame

We've been waiting
Hiding in the dark
Contemplating whether or not we should come out
Hide and seek to find illumination
So take me where it burns my eyes...

See I, I took the long way round
My head buried firmly in the ground
I woke to find we had nothing left
And it's best not to dwell
When others take my kiss and tell
And turn my shining light around again

We've been waiting
Hiding in the dark
Contemplating whether or not we should come out
Hide and seek to find illumination
So take me away...

Take me to your sun
Burn this darkness from my heart
Take me to your light
Let it open up, open up, open up my eyes...

So come on over, we can make out
Twist and turn the world around
Listen to the pages burn as we make love
Somewhere in the underdark
Illumination catches on
And we take shelter like moths unto a...

Waiting, hiding in the dark
Contemplating whether or not we should come out
Hide and seek to find illumination
So take me away (Illumination)
Take me away (Illumination)
Take me away (Illumination)
Take me away...
