about

one for the northern lights

lyrics

I wonder what it's like
To always be holding up a light
To the gloom

Even though the stars say,
Someday everybody meets
Their doom

And there ain't nothin' we can do
Except for sing along on cue
Cuz sometimes it feels like
The end is coming soon

I feel it coming home at night
Or when I walk around downtown
It's like I'm hollowed out inside
And if you knock, I might make a sound

And I don't really want to say anything out loud
But I feel like it's my soul that's hiding out
And every year I get a little bit older
I lose a little bit more control over
My spirit and I hear it rolling like a thunder cloud

Oh but hey! It's OK.
I'm feeling great!

I won't stop
I won't stop
I won't even ease the breaks

Hey, Alaska, I just ask ya to light the way
Oh and lead me to heaven's gate
