I could lavish my life,
With a bed of silken fallacies
But underneath are rotten springs
I¡¯m starting to see
Facades that we fabricate
Slowly crumbling away
No guarantee that I¡¯ll be strong
And I guarantee my pride is singing this song
And I¡¯m scared to show my little black box
But it¡¯s all for you (2nd time "And" instead of "But")
This little light will go away if I won¡¯t be real
This little light will run away if I don¡¯t tell you how I feel
Little light please stay don't stray
Help me to tolerate myself, myself, myself,
¡®Cause I feel so vain
I am bright as the sun,
With a crimson heat so blackening
And at the core the cool¡¯s shut in
The sun knows it's time to set
And to draw a close
My memory just won¡¯t comply
No guarantee that I¡¯ll be strong
And I guarantee my pride is singing this song
And I¡¯m scared to show my little black box
And it¡¯s all for you
This little light will go away if I won¡¯t be real
This little light will run away if I don¡¯t tell you how I feel
Little light please stay don't stray
Help me to tolerate myself, myself, myself,
¡®Cause I feel so vain
This little light will go away if I won¡¯t be real
This little light will run away if I don¡¯t tell you how I feel
Little light please stay don't stray
Help me to tolerate myself, myself, myself,
¡®Cause I feel so vain
