Ode to darkness (the lighthouse song) Lyrics by Lau Noah

A Dos

2024

[Verse 1]
In the darkness of the world
Is a safe place above all
One where no one sees the scars
That made you stronger
In the ocean in the night
Is the silence of a fight
To avoid the blinding light
That wants to conquer
And you'd say it's rather odd
That in all this world of God
I'd much rather live where suns
Don't come to shine through
See, I've learned it in hard ways
That when someone knows your face
They no longer see the soul
That sure defines you
So where nothing ever shines
I'm the ruler by design
All I need is but a voice
And strings to pluck on
And my heart that beats so strong
To the rhythm of my song
Has no face so he's no slave
And the shackles are all gone
And the shackles are all gone
[Chorus]
Turn off the lighthouse
And blow out the fire
It's never saved one of us
This pretty darkness
Is all I desire
It's always done more for
Freedom than light ever does
[Verse 2]
In the solitude I keep
While awake and while asleep
If I ever wished that I
Could be another
I have found a great relief
Through the fear and through the grief
In the love my songs and I
Have for each other
They have taught me through my breath
About life and about death
And have seen my future years
Before they came true
In the darkness of this world
In this quiet above all
All alone and right before
The sky could turn blue
So where nothing ever shines
I'm the ruler by design
All I need is but a voice
And strings to pluck on
And my heart that beats so strong
To the rhythm of my song
Has no face so he's no slave
And the shackles are all gone
And the shackles are all gone
[Chorus]
Turn off the lighthouse
And blow out the fire
It's never saved one of us
This pretty darkness
Is all I desire
It's always done more for
Freedom than light ever does
Turn off the lighthouse
And blow out the fire
It's never saved one of us
This pretty darkness
Is all I desire
It's always done more for
Freedom than light ever does
Turn off the lighthouse
And blow out the fire
It's never saved one of us
This pretty darkness
Is all I desire
It's always done more for
Freedom, freedom...
Turn out the lighthouse
