Meet me where the light pours in On this troubled day In this manic hour In which all things have seemed to decay All that was once new and bright Normal and constant Withers under the weighing pressure of this hour The pressure of grief and sorrow Pressing down upon these all too familiar people Meet me where the light pours in Upon this muddy grass The baseball diamond a few feet away And a swingset to our left Let’s climb these bright green structures As we did in times way past To find a source of comfort A source of light to keep us climbing Amidst the chaos of our house Past and present meets us now Colliding and burning and smelling of salt Tasting like ash and feeling like freedom All things have been said and everyone is forgiven Let us all go Across the asphalt lot By the stagnant pond And through the lining pines To the little source of light We found in troubled times Innocence lost is wisdom gained A bittersweet give and take That always results in growth and pain

Where the light pours in
Meet me where the light pours in On this troubled day In this manic hour In which all things have seemed to decay All that was once new and bright Normal and constant Withers under the weighing pressure of this hour The pressure of grief and sorrow Pressing down upon these all too familiar people Meet me where the light pours in Upon this muddy grass The baseball diamond a few feet away And a swingset to our left Let’s climb these bright green structures As we did in times way past To find a source of comfort A source of light to keep us climbing Amidst the chaos of our house Past and present meets us now Colliding and burning and smelling of salt Tasting like ash and feeling like freedom All things have been said and everyone is forgiven Let us all go Across the asphalt lot By the stagnant pond And through the lining pines To the little source of light We found in troubled times Innocence lost is wisdom gained A bittersweet give and take That always results in growth and pain
