My mother wears rosy glasses
Goes to church, prays to Jesus 'till she passes out
By the road of her house is my dad
In his heart lives a poet, a sad face
Clowns never made my brother smile
He’s a devil dog, runnin’ strong, never tired
I am my brother’s brother
Redundant wonder
Misunderstanding how we all stand under the same old sun
Yeah we love no one but ourselves
Even that just goes to hell
Well, well said the sun to the moon by the stars
How far can they run before it all falls apart?
I don't know
I am just your reflection
But I know
They will hope
They will dream
Oh, when they see me lighting up the night
I’m fighting with the tide
Waving them goodnight
They’ll soon wake up to your sunlight
Checking that the time’s right
Time’s right, oh
You’ll heal
These holes
And fill this rut
Of holy ghost
And broken nose
I just wanna shout out loud
Your name in this crowd
And if you hear somehow
Won’t you turn around
‘Cause in your eyes
I see my soul
Yes, I see my soul
My God
My soul
In your eyes
I see my soul
Yes i see my soul
My god
My soul
Don’t be so set in your ways said the moon back to the sun
They will learn
They will change
They are only human
Don't you know
They are just our reflections
But I know
They will hope
They will dream
Oh when they see me lighting up the night
I’m fighting with the tide
Waving them goodnight
So goodnight moon
Morning sun
Evening stars and little ones
Learn to hope
Sleep to dream
Find love
In everything
‘Cause in my mom and my dad
Oh my brother too
I love for them
And I sing for you
