lyrics

I am who i am
carbon based mixed with oxygen
throw in some sin
stare into mirrors
map out a plan
you gotta make something to break
the more you put in the brighter the display
all the colors you've carefully arranged
you gotta tear 'em apart and rearrange
gotta disappear to find yourself again

and the fault that have build up your fears
will wash away with time and tears
well the darkest part of the night won't hide
the light that burns through me
all the darkest parts of me

It don't have to be ideal
when the time is right everything will become clear
to itself and to you just you will know
you got the truth
when the sun burns it out of you

hold it up pass it down to the youth
hold it close feel your heart beat for you
now the darkest parts of the mind
can't hide the light that burns through you
all the darkest parts of you

now the light that burns our shadows into earth
is the light bringing life and good news (x2)

the energy required to make or break a bond
is at just the appropriate level for building molecules
this microscopic dust is stable life
and if provoked it will respond
your formula is just as flawed
and i know it could be all for you
and i know it comes down to just you

well the darkest part of the mind can't hide
the light that burns for you
all the darkest parts of you
all the darkest parts of you

the light that burns this darkest through the earth
is the light that now burns for you.
