Artificial Light Lyrics
I don't like artificial light
But I use it every night
No other way to see
No, the day won't stay for me
And when the lights go out
Memory gets me around
As I wander through the dark
But I can't get very far
And once again I find
I'm no good at being blind
And the light of every day
Can never be replaced
Don't mistake the true for the fake,
A raft for an island,
Asleep for awake.
There are so many ways to evade
What's right in front of your face.
If there's a way
I'd rather not remain
So lost in disarray
My brain a battlefield
Of the wounded and the healed
And as my reach is short
These hands could use support
To climb out of the trench
I keep on falling in
Don't mistake the true for the fake,
A raft for an island,
Asleep for awake.
There are so many ways to evade
What's right in front of your face.
Drink you in, but I still thirst
Not the answer I thought you were
Always said, what's it worth?
Not an anchor, only words.
Drink you in, but I still thirst
Not the answer I thought you were
Always said, what's it worth?
Not an anchor, only words.
But I use it every night
No other way to see
No, the day won't stay for me
And when the lights go out
Memory gets me around
As I wander through the dark
But I can't get very far
And once again I find
I'm no good at being blind
And the light of every day
Can never be replaced
A raft for an island,
Asleep for awake.
There are so many ways to evade
What's right in front of your face.
I'd rather not remain
So lost in disarray
My brain a battlefield
Of the wounded and the healed
And as my reach is short
These hands could use support
To climb out of the trench
I keep on falling in
A raft for an island,
Asleep for awake.
There are so many ways to evade
What's right in front of your face.
Not the answer I thought you were
Always said, what's it worth?
Not an anchor, only words.
Not the answer I thought you were
Always said, what's it worth?
Not an anchor, only words.
