You have a way with light You make it long for you Soldier, and his devotee The saddest light I've ever seen
You have a way with silence Beneath your pillow it lays, sleep Squeezing the worn leather handle A smile finds you, at midnight, Your mouth in sweet familiarity
I think This time You forget what's mightier than swords I hold The ace And when it shows I'm killing you with words
You have an eye for the ill-fated In the mirror you learn You can't stand it, keep crying Keep turning scars into memories Until the souls of sinners burn
Don't look It's me As bright as the whitest light can be My world My rules One swift erase away from an amputee Swift erase away... Swift erase away...
My world, my rules My world, my rules My world My world, my rules
You have a way with light (you have a way with light) You make it long for you (you make it long for you) Soldier, and his devotee The saddest light I've ever seen
