streetlight
softly thinking
i see now you’re glowing
but say how’s it going
are you waiting on a stranger
to join you in the night
so you can share your ideas
on how to calm their fears
with your light

darkness
wrapped around you
the fabric of a feeling
to some it may feel healing
but to others it’s gonna smother like a blanket
too heavy and too tight
and so you stand patiently
and hope to set them free
with your light

shine on
shine on
shine on

daybreak
clears the shadows
relieved of your duty
it’s gonna be a beauty
and while the world inside is waking
you drift off out of sight
for to sleep until when
you start it all again
with your light

for to sleep until when
you start it all again
