[Intro]
Dust on the window
Ash in the sky
Hands in my pockets
Still asking why
[Verse 1]
Cold floor
Same war every morning
Blue phone
Dark scroll, heavy warnings
Heart numb
Still drums in my chest hit
Asked God once
Felt like He sent a text, then
Screen cracked
Hope thin like the glass is
Cheap mask
Fake laughs over caskets
Whole town
Chasing halos in traffic
Good feels
Like a rumor that passed quick
[Chorus]
You’re gonna have to make your own light in this dark world
Hold that little spark in your palms, let your hands whirl
Pray that the light can spark a fire in the world
’Cause there’s not much good left in this evil world (yeah)
You’re gonna have to make your own light in this dark world
Even if it’s shaking in the wind, let the flame twirl
Pray that the light can spark a fire in the world
’Cause there’s not much good left in this evil world (evil world)
[Verse 2]
Tears dried
But the eyes still haunted
Cheap highs
Leave souls overdrafted
Kids sleep
To the sound of sirens
Old prayers
Folded up in silence
If the sky don’t open, then we strike the flint
If the saints stop singing, we bite the flint
If the love runs low and the trust runs thin
Then we guard one ember like it’s oxygen (yeah)
[Chorus]
You’re gonna have to make your own light in this dark world
Hold that little spark in your palms, let your hands whirl
Pray that the light can spark a fire in the world
’Cause there’s not much good left in this evil world
You’re gonna have to make your own light in this dark world
Even if it’s shaking in the wind, let the flame twirl
Pray that the light can spark a fire in the world
’Cause there’s not much good left in this evil world (evil world)
[Bridge]
If all I get
Is a match and a breath
I’ll strike it, I’ll guard it (guard it)
Till there’s nothing left
If all we get
Is a spark in our chest
Let it burn, let it burn
Till it lights the rest (hey)
[Chorus]
You’re gonna have to make your own light in this dark world
Hold that little spark in your palms, let your hands whirl
Pray that the light can spark a fire in the world
’Cause there’s not much good left in this evil world
You’re gonna have to make your own light in this dark world
Even if it’s shaking in the wind, let the flame twirl
Pray that the light can spark a fire in the world
’Cause there’s not much good left in this evil world
