There is beauty in it all
Every rise and every fall
There are blessings
In the dressings of each curse
There is light
In every shadow
Even when the pathway narrows
There’s a better for each dispossessing worse
.
There is beauty in the breakdown
Should we learn of where it lies
There’s an art to laying face down
While our worst fears scare us blind
There’s a heart to every masterpiece
Remastered and resized
Once we find the strength in what remains behind
.
There’s a time and a place
To turn and face the demons chiding us
Another to embrace the tail lights guiding us
(Tell ‘em of the forces)
Forces beyond our control
Can be remorseless
As our thoughts become exhaustive to denying us
Life may not provide us with the tools to alter courses
But the truth behind our tired eyes lies inside of us
(Inside of us)
The truth behind our tired eyes lies inside of us
(Inside of us)
The truth behind our tired eyes lies inside of us
(The truth behind our tired eyes lies inside of us)
The truth behind our tired eyes lies inside of us
(It’s guiding us)

This could be the day
This could be the way we play
This could be the turning point for aching joints that waste away
This could be epiphany
But only if we wish to be enlightened
(Only if we wish to be enlightened)
.
Let the right one in
And not be quite so quick to frighten
(Heighten)
Let the right one in
And not be quite so quick to frighten
(Heighten)
Let the right one in
And not be quite so quick to frighten
(Heighten)
Let the right one in
Let zen then all ten senses heighten
(Enlighten)
.
This could lead astray the pain
To gain a greater standing
This could be the balm to charm all aches and pains withstanding
This could be our saviour
When our worst fears scare us blind
No need for disclaimer
With the tryst of ancients signed
.
This could redefine our minds
Assign more stable line of sight
And all it takes
Is blindness to confide
(All it takes
Is blindness to confide)
.
This could be the day
This could be the way we play
This could be the turning point for aching joints that waste away
This could be epiphany
But only if we wish to be enlightened
.
Let the right one in
And not be quite so quick to frighten
Let the right one in
Let zen then all ten senses heighten
.
This could be the inner sight
Envisaged by the river side
These could be the streams of dreams
That shimmer on most bitter nights
This could be affright’s worst nightmare
Cursed to find the blessing
These could be the devils we’re caressing
While death is left at first impressions
Life is said to learn its lessons
This could be our turn to turn and walk away from evanescence
This could be the day
For famed progression
(This could be the day
For famed progression)
Should we bleed with courage when we seek
The secret of our everlasting keep
.
This could be the day
This could be the way to stay
This could prove the tonic
Embryonic to the greater gain
This could be epiphany
But only if we wish to be enlightened
(Only if we wish to be enlightened)
.
Let the right one in
And not be quite so quick to frighten
(Heighten)
Let the right one in
And not be quite so quick to frighten
(Heighten)
Let the right one in
And not be quite so quick to frighten
(Heighten)
Let the right one in
Let zen then all ten senses heighten
(Enlighten)
.
The secret of our everlasting keep
