Compass (Beneath the Lights)

Beneath the lights we are found
Reflecting our whole
Within the night we are bound
Yearning for control

Reveal the might, wear the crown
Give meaning to the role
Conceal the fright, let time slow down
A promise to console

Though we lead the pathway we
Know the weight’s on our shoulders to

Live a life of brightness whe'er we go
And open up the window to thе soul

Awake from the world below
Thе need for us to grow guides our hands

Unending dances on a tightrope
To chase the underlying truth while
We’re in a race towards delusion
Self-deception is our victory

Though the sun will rise and fall again
And the urgency for more grows
I keep contentment in my own mind
To find light in what I chose

Live a life of brightness whe'er we go
And open up the window to the soul
Speak the word and hearts will overflow
Calling back the sounds from long ago

Awake from the world below
The need for us to grow guides our hands

When forceful desolation brings you to your knees
And seasons call the leaves to fall down from the trees
The howl of darkness pulls you to the void inside
A spiteful voice affronting you to steal your pride
Offer yourself

Beneath the lights we are found
Reflecting our whole
Within the night we are bound
Yearning for control

We seek the right and profound
A vision of the goal
We resonate from the ground
Through our celestial pole

Alone we lose the pathway
And so we stride together

Awake from the world below
The need for us to grow guides our hands
