lyrics

Feel the dark bitter hindsight burning
the days in the rush, the sunflowers in his eyes
have turned to black, eclipsed all his limelight,
and become faceless

Seen the last of the lighthouse burning,
im weightless on sea with the sun stars in the sky
beaconing, im begging them to kill this pride of mine
or im not gunna see the light

im a baseless man, who used to shine

i frayed apart in the rain i start diving
for ghosts of the past, in the sea cave with the sharks
feel the heart of the lighthouse burning
whos keeper is lost, entangled in the spines

maybe il just jump ship in this losing fight of mine
if im not gunna see the light

i wont be back for the morning light
im faceless
