Typhoon - Artificial Light Lyrics
In the beginning there was one source of lightIt would die and come back every nightAs a woman showing off her thighsJust a little bit at a timeIn the beginningEveryone bowed their heads towards the lightThey were dance and eat their friends aliveWe were not happy thenAnd these were simpler timesNow we are playedWe're the moth, we're the flameWe were aware of the dangerBut we could not keep awayMy eyes are openIn the beginning I was standing out in the yardWith my father pointing up at the starsI asked, "do you think there is life on Mars?Is their life like ours?"From here I see a light left onIn a house like mine and out in the lawnThere's a man like you and a smaller oneI looked in the mirrorI have seen myselfOh, I know of how universe, it shows itselfIt's always getting bigger like youI was told that I'd grow up to be myselfI thought I would get bigger tooLook what I have found, look what I have foundLook what I have found, look what I have foundAn artificial light, we come and gather aroundThis is why we have lovers and why we have fightersThis is why the arms race and particle collidersOur eyes are on the flameJust a little white lighterAnd it belongs to meIt belongs to meIt belongs to meI woke up in the morningTo a pale light tangled in your hairAnd I never wake before youBut this time I caught you sleeping thereYes you are my sunlightYou are my last breath of airI would try to hold itI would try to keep the momentLike a photograph of the sunsetLike a little kid with a bug netLike a dying man, I swearYou belong to me, you belong to meIf you belong to anyone then you belong to meBut I have no other place to keep you safebut in my shaking,ever shaking melodyLife goes onComes back onWe'll all be hereIn my familiar hallsEmpty jarStolen songWait for the lightto come back home
