End on a Hai

[Verse 1]

Mother, hold me high
I live in the dirt
Send me back into the light
Where I know
That nothing hurts me
Cause I’ve been there before
I was even born and I think it was fine

Send me home into the clouds
Hey little boy you can settle down
You’re going back to where it’s warm
Down the hall toward the pearled gate
They are singing my name
And I’d like to join them

[Bridge 1]

In these halls it looks like lights are changing again
Lights are changing again
Lights are changing again

In these halls it look like lights
Are changing again
Are changing again
Are changing
And I need them to

[Verse 2]

So, let me be as I was
Burning high in the night
An easy noise and a quiet glow

Add my name to the list
And you can carve it in stone
Take the heart, leave the bone

Send my skin to the ground
Hey little boy you can settle down
You’re going right back to where it’s warm
Down the hall towards the pearled gate
They are singing my name
And I’d like to
I’d like to
Join them

[Bridge 2]

I’ll take my halo now please
Come down, find me
And I’ll watch from above
Floating on feelings of love
Seeing my body decay and turn into a flower
That’s okay

[Chorus 1]

This time would you let me stay asleep
In a lifelong lullaby

Living in a vivid, well-lit dream
In a bedroom far outside of time

Waiting for the end that never comes
Not dead I’m just not alive

Letting all the other people know
That I’m here
But I’ve joined the divine

[Outro]

Could you make it so no one cries
Could you make it so no one cries
