Lighthouse

You learned to cut yourself up

Into bite-sized portions

Praised for when you bow your head

In sweet devotion

'Cause everybody loves a thornless rose

But that's not how they grow

Easy on the eye

You hide behind your smile

Lost amidst the storm

Guiding others to the shore

Take me to your lighthouse

But you can turn the lights out

No more words to say

No more parts to play

Covered in their doubts

Turn you inside out

That's a lot of blame

You don't have to hide away

You don't have to hide, no

You put yourself on a leash

Follow and repeat

A distant memory

Of who you used to be

Slowly turning translucent

The embodied illusion

Take me to your lighthouse

But you can turn the lights out

No more words to say

No more parts to play

Covered in their doubts

Turn you inside out

That's a lot of blame

You don't have to hide away

You don't have to hide, no

'Cause those who matter won't mind

And those who mind don't matter

I know you're terrified

But just repeat this pattern

Those who matter won't mind

And those who mind don't matter

I know you're terrified

But just repeat this pattern

Those who matter won't mind

And those who mind don't matter

I know you're terrified

So take me to your lighthouse

But you can turn the lights out

Covered in their doubts

That's a lot of blame

You don't have to hide away

Take me to your lighthouse

But you can turn the lights out

No more words to say

No more parts to play

Covered in their doubts

Turn you inside out

That's a lot of blame

You don't have to hide away

You don't have to hide, no

Take me to your lighthouse

But you can turn the lights out

Covered in their doubts

That's a lot of blame

You don't have to hide away

You don't have to hide, no

You don't have to hide away
