Lanterns lit

Memory rushes in

Then washes you away

I am losing you to the sea

 

I’ll break from the weight of my mind

But your ghost I will gladly bear

 

And with all your grief in my arms

I will labor by singing light

 

I’ll keep my lanterns lit

I’ll keep my lanterns lit

I’ll keep my lanterns lit

I’ll keep my lanterns lit

I’ll keep my lanterns lit

I’ll keep my lanterns lit

I’ll keep my lanterns lit

I’ll keep my lanterns lit

 

If you had a single flaw

You just could not last forever, could you?

You just could not last for me
