Making Light Lyrics

Here come the cavalry again
Trying to find a way in
Pick them off like ticks
And flick them away

Was a time they would have slain me
Now they look like babies
My little milk fed breath dears
Milk fed breath dears

Let them blow out the candle
You and I will just keep making light
Let them blow it
You and I will just keep getting it right

My spaceman
We trip and fall and somehow land upright
Blow out the candle
You and I will just keep making light

There goes that phone ringing again
Someone wants a quote about a famous friend
I haven't seen in years
I decide to let it ring
Pass it in the hallway
Give that thing the finger and jeer

Let them blow out the candle
You and I will just keep making light
Let them blow it
You and I will just keep getting it right

My spaceman
We trip and fall and somehow land upright
Blow out the candle
You and I will just keep making light

Let the stars fall
You and I will just go underground
Let the earth stall
You and I will just keep spinning around

My spaceman
We trip and fall and somehow land upright
Blow out the candle
You and I will just keep making light

Let the stars fall
You and I will just keep making light
Let the earth stall
You and I will just keep making light
