Mirage

Through dust, through dust
The scars and the stars, they elude us, elude us
No matter what you believe
The shine is brighter in the dark
Brighter in the dark

A dream that I've lived for, a light in the ember
The closer I get, the colder it feels, feels like
You want 10,000 things when you're happy
You want one when you're low and down
To feel safe and sound

As the final thing that's left for me
I just need a little air to breathe
No matter what they say, your shine is brighter in the dark
As a promise of better days
No matter what you now believe
Deep inside our hearts, we shine brighter in the dark

No wrongs, only rights
Nothing feels real in the red of the night
I chased the mirage, and it led me astray
But the farther I wandered, the more I could see how
You want 10,000 things when you're happy
You want one when you're low and down
You got a lesson, so fucking learn it
Or you got none when you're dead and done

As the final thing that's left for me
I just need a little air to breathe
No matter what they say, your shine is brighter in the dark
As a promise of better days
No matter what you now believe
Deep inside our hearts, we shine brighter in the dark

The water in my desert, rain in my drought
I'm lost in this, a vision that led me astray
And the closer I get
The farther you seem to flee
The closer I get, the colder it feels
Oh, how you are everything for me
The closer I get, the farther you seem to flee
No matter how far you are now
The shine is brighter in the...

Oh, how you are everything that's left for me
I just need a little air to breathe
No matter what they say, your shine is brighter in the dark
As a promise of better days
No matter what you now believe
Deep inside our hearts, we shine brighter in the dark

We shine brighter in the dark, no matter what you now believe
We shine brighter in the dark, no matter what you now believe
We shine brighter in the dark
