A Second in White

You're young and your spirit's not broken I rest in the eyes where I see myself back I'm a shape in the shadow of your free dreaming All these shapes, all these arrows to the places I've been Move aside This town where I gloss the walls of failing Soak the red sunset, try and warm this chill I'm a pattern out of the place that runs uneven All these patterns, so impassioned By a place that makes me tired. Move aside I had a second in white This flash, this flash outside the dark Then chance hurried on I had a second in white Let me tell you why If you make something the only thing That there's no life without it It's your air, your light and your food It's been the filler of all your wounds. Losing that I thought would be darkest day But then I heard the birds sing after the storm And they sang "It's you, you have it all now, what will you do?" I had a second in white Move, move aside, Move aside It's not gonna stay. This flash, this flash outside the dark Then chance hurried on, I had a second in white.
