Bright & Early

[Verse 1]

Bright and early

Through the curtains

The sun comes pouring in

Filling glasses

Up with diamonds

Stirring where I've been

[Pre-Chorus]

It's all trigger and effect

Dominoes at their best

[Chorus]

In the end I'm told

It taught me everything I know

That the wreckage left behind

Will somehow make me grow

But why couldn't I have been safe from the start?

Soundly asleep

[Verse 2]

The warmth of blankets

Makes me nervous

I'd rather catch a cold

Like sparks in matches

Blink, you'll miss it

The future's up in smoke

Though dust has settled

I smell the ashes

Buried in my clothes

[Pre-Chorus]

It's all trigger and effect, I know

Dominoes at their best

[Chorus]

In the end I'm told

It taught me everything I know

But when the fire took our home

I lost part of my soul

[Outro]

From the ground up

I'll keep building

Houses into homes

If trust is ribbon

Then patience ties it

In a perfect bow
