Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mother, raise me from my bed
I've been eating existential dread for breakfast
This tempest washed out all the colour
'Cause another threw me to the wolves
Tore out all my ventricles
Put plainly, I'm hurting
But did I deserve it?
Saw the tears on your note
I guess you're never coming home
[Chorus]
Where does the light get in?
Darkness penetrating, this is suffocating
Where does the light get in?
Darkness penetrating, I'm contaminated
Oh, the things I'd have done for a kiss from the sun
Tell me, where does the light get in?
[Verse 2]
Another day draped in dismay
Supernova in decay
Affection infection
Cross my heart and pray for resurrection
Your hollow ground grew a barren tree
Your false gods lie in debris
You ripped the meat from her bones
And left nothing for the crows
[Chorus]
Where does the light get in?
Darkness penetrating, this is suffocating
Where does the light get in?
Darkness penetrating, I'm contaminated
Oh, the things I'd have done for a kiss from the sun
Tell me, where does the light get in?
[Bridge]
Yeah
A permanent eclipse
Night leaks from your lips
I'm choking in a lunar waterfall
Caught a dying kiss
Free me from this cold love, fog of war
I made my home in hell
There's a hole in my heart and it's bleeding
I made my home in hell
[Chorus]
Where does the light get in?
Darkness penetrating, this is suffocating
Where does the light get in?
Darkness penetrating, I'm contaminated
Oh, the things I'd have done for a kiss from the sun
Tell me, where does the light get in?
Where does the light get in?
Where does the light get in?
