Typhoon (band) - Artificial Light lyrics

In the beginning there was one source of light It would die and come back every night As a woman showing off her thighs Just a little bit at a time In the beginning Everyone bowed their heads towards the light They would dance and eat their friends alive We were not happy then And these were simpler times Now we all play We're the moth, we're the flame We were aware of the danger But we could not keep away My eyes are open In the beginning I was standing out in the yard With my father pointing up at the stars I asked, "Do you think there is life on Mars? Is there life like ours?" From here I see a light left on In a house like mine and out in the lawn There's a man like you and a smaller one I looked in the mirror I have seen myself Oh, I know how the universe, it shows itself It's always getting bigger like you I was told that I'd grow up to be myself I thought I would get bigger too Look what I have found, look what I have found Look what I have found, look what I have found An artificial light, we come and gather around This is why we have lovers and why we have fighters This is why the arms race and particle colliders Our eyes are on the flame Just a little white lighter And it belongs to me It belongs to me It belongs to me I woke up in the morning To a pale light tangled in your hair And I never wake before you But this time I caught you sleeping there Yes you are my sunlight You are my last breath of air I would try to hold it I would try to keep the moment Like a photograph of the sunset Like a little kid with a bug net Like a dying man, I swear You belong to me, you belong to me If you belong to anyone then you belong to me But I have no other place to keep you safe But in my shaking, ever shaking melody Life goes on Comes back on We'll all be here In my familiar halls Empty jar Stolen song Wait for the light To come back home
