White Light

Vague reflection To stare back like a ghost Dropping out To wake with a bolt It's all a moment Everything will pass Your heart grows From your mistakes What's in a number? 27 years Not long enough to learn from your tears Not long enough to live with the fear That you just mightn't be done before your time And all of the beauty All of the pain Everything borrowed Won't happen again And all that's left is love White light, shine on a prodigy Not yet, unfinished symphony I can't breathe I see what you could've been You gotta live long enough to learn how to live Snapshot A fading Polaroid Of a girl Too sensitive a soul This flash is blinding Your hand over your eyes Don't wanna see Can't take the glare Of all of the beauty All of the pain Everything borrowed Won't happen again And all that's left is love White light, shine on a prodigy Not yet, unfinished symphony I can't breathe See what you could've been You gotta live long enough to learn how to live Curtain fade into memory Too young wasted a tragedy Turn back Be who you'll only be When you live long enough to learn how to live Gotta live long enough to learn how to live Gotta live long enough to learn how to live Gotta live long enough to learn how to live You gotta live long enough to learn how to live White light, shine on a prodigy Not yet, unfinished symphony I can't breathe See what you could've been You gotta live long enough to learn how to live White light, shine on a prodigy Not yet, unfinished symphony I can't breathe See what you could've been You gotta live long enough to learn how to live Curtain fade into memory Too young wasted a tragedy Turn back Be who you'll only be When you live long enough to learn how to live White light
