So, as the flowers begin to blossom
I feel myself coming out of the costume
That I dawned last halloween
I feel the winter months are so mean to me
And I reflect it in every scene that I play
Spend my nights alone and pray that in the morning I see rays
Of sunshine amongst the grey
But all I get is just more rainy days
I like the cave
And yeah, it's dark but it feels safe
And I'm not ready to behave like everyone walking the pavement
They're all exposed
To the elements and expectations
Of a life I should be living
No, I'm not ready to thrive so I just stay inside
But I keep looking for the rays of sunshine
Peering through cracks for signs I make it back
So, I ask a favor of everyone who ever cared, please swear that from time to time
You'll let me cross your mind, and come and visit the cave
And ask me if I'm ready to leave
And if I still say no, on your way out as you wrestle through the trees
Remove a branch and leave a ray of light
To let me know that you'll be back when the time is right
And we'll walk out hand in hand when I have won this fight
Oh, would you
Be the light to my dark
And could you
Comfort me and my lonely heart
Oh, would you
Be the light to my dark
And could you
Pick me up when I fall apart
It's not selfish to work on yourself
But I still need your help
'Cause I've been in here for a while
And I still need to see you smile
And I still need to hear you say that this is gonna be ok
And if it takes more time
That's alright 'cause I will make it to the light
If you can promise you'll be there
If you can promise I can meet you in the fresh air
If you can promise I can meet you in the fresh air
If you can promise I can meet you
