We cut our tongues, on the grey of morning for the one we love The sisters argued about what was done, as joy and sorrow often do On the mantle hangs, our hearts with yours and all the sticky pain The same thing that we have blamed, is the same thing we need The shadow light can bring In the joy and suffering The shadow light can bring In the joy and suffering In the arms of saint felicity is a thousand storms Quietly rusting but still giving hope This is a comma not a period Curse the birds for singing on a day when we have hurt Trying to see through eyes that weeping blurred If I could see you would it even change The shadow light can bring In the joy and suffering The shadow light can bring In the joy and suffering Rend for me a thousand shades of blue Give constellations new consolations The shadow you cast continues But a silver lining, silver lining Rend for me a thousand shades of blue Give constellations new consolations The shadow you cast continues But a silver lining, silver lining Wraps itself around you, wraps itself around you In a kindness only darkness proves Wraps itself around you, wraps itself around you In a kindness only darkness proves Wraps itself around you, wraps itself around you In a kindness only darkness proves
