[Future Islands - Light House lyrics]

When I couldn't see you for the wall
What was that you said?
What was that you said before you called?

And when I couldn't catch you for the fall
What was that you said?
What was that you said?

"Nothing hurts this much"

But, I've seen the way that bodies lie
And bodies tend to break and I've been away
I've been away too long
Too long to be afraid

But, you know what you know is better
Is brighter

And you know you know
What you know is better is brighter

And this is where we were
When I showed you the dark
Inside of me, in spite of me
On a bench in the park you said to me:

"This is not you this is not you
This is not you! This is not you"

But, I've seen the way that bodies lie
And bodies tend to break and I've been away
I've been away too long
And I don't know a better place

And this is where we are
In your bed, in my arms outside of me
In spite of 'we'

I showed you the dark and you said to me:

"You know what you know is better
Is brighter"

"And you know, you know
What you know is better is brighter"
