share your light, share your truth.

bring out some light, and shine it through.
we are the heart that melted through.
beware the ghosts that cut us through.
release control, and break on through.

for centuries now, we have crossed across
ancient paths
trying to find a way to make a home
from aztlan to tenochtitlan.

rivers are rising and
secrets eroding.
we were the light,
but then came the night.
we lost the chance
to find ourselves
in all this darkness
and the unknown.
we could’ve really had a moment,
but we gave it up.
just to be human,
we gave it up.

we’ll never be special like somebody,
so you can stop trying and pretending
to make songs like anybody,
to make music for everybody,
and just be yourself,
and just be yourself.

bring out some light, and shine it through.
we are the heart that melted through.
beware the ghosts that cut us through.
release control, and break on through.

numerology and big changes will come.
tax the poor, and they will succumb.
tax the rich, and they’ll cum
all over you,
even start a revolution,
and call themselves the people,
and then spin it on tv.
some folks think that’s crazy,
just conspiracy theories,
except that’s what’s really happening,
that’s what’s really happening,
that’s what’s really happening.

explain and make sense
out of all this nonsense,
and you can’t quite
come to terms with the absurd that
we are just a thought-
a word, kinetic energy,
and a verb.
we had dreams of being like birds,
and built machines to make life easy,
but everything came down crashing,
everything came down crashing.

bring out some light, and shine it through.
we are the heart that melted through.
beware the ghosts that cut us through.
release control, and break on through.

i would choose to fly high
like icarus,
but my wings would ignite
like a phoenix.
one day, we’ll all just return
to star dust,
but until then
share your light,
shed your light,
share your truth,
shed your truth.
free your mind if there’s time
and find a way to escape.

bring out some light, and shine it through.
we are the heart that melted through.
beware the ghosts that cut us through.
release control, and break on through.
