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
