Lighthouse

[Verse 1: Johniepee]
Stuck in a haze, where'd the day go? Groundhog, feeling numb and it ain't all right
Two horns on my halo, same old lows, dealing with the same old lies
I know when the rain goes, sunlight, feeling fine till there ain't no shine
Midnight where the pain goes, till I'm up and away with demons, they tied in a struggle with me
Making it harder to breathe, struggling under the sheets
Nothing to see, huffing and puffin, I'm weak, nobody notice the screams
Couple of weeks, falling apart at the seams, Johnie is not what he seems
Coupled with these thoughts that I'm having, they're ravenous, damn what has happened to me?
I dunno? But I've been here before, stay busy, can't deal with the silence
Terrified when I'm closing my eyelids, asleep at the wheel while anxiety's driving
Fuck, co-pilot depression, OCD, damn my silent obsession
I'm thinking, I'm thinking, I'm thinking, I'm over thinking, overthinking, my mind is a weapon, argh

[Chorus: Jon Reichardt]
All the scars I see are stories told
Deep inside your weary weathered soul
Let me help you find your way to land
So your feet can finally touch the sand
Just watch the lighthouse, lighthouse, lighthouse
Just watch the lighthouse, lighthouse, lighthouse

[Verse 2: Johniepee]
Wanted posters fray in the wind, 26 years I've been searching, but no dice
For the place that I'm going has no light, so it's hard to be finding it, no lie
Took a left and a right in the maze, thought that I'd step and then find it, surprised
When the lighting it fades, breadcrumbs and my regrets I try forget, find them lining the way
But in flash of the light, man I know that I don’t know my home but I know that I’m close
And the shore it approaches, lost in the ocean was all that I knew, waves guide me to coast
Found my negatives, develop in a dark room, all my demons won’t live where the sparks loom
Never dreamed that I’d see through the black when the White Castle hit my heart with a harpoon
When I ran to that beach that day, in the search of escape from the place that I lived in
I ran, till I swam and the sea went grey, two options drowning or swimming
But I would not give in, no place that I fit in, annoyed at my presence, no point for my reference
Was lost at sea, would’ve rotted if not for these, lights finding me now, now I’m in the lighthouse

[Chorus (Extended): Jon Reichardt]
All the scars I see are stories told
Deep inside your weary weathered soul
Let me help you find your way to land
So your feet can finally touch the sand
Just watch the lighthouse, lighthouse, lighthouse
Just watch the lighthouse, lighthouse, lighthouse
Just watch the lighthouse, lighthouse, lighthouse
Just watch the lighthouse, lighthouse, lighthouse

[Outro]
There is an absolute universal truth that I know for sure, and it is simply this: when we suffer this, too, will shape me. This is a universal, absolute, undeniable truth. When we suffer it will shape us. We will become bitter or we will become better.
