Brighter Lights

Sir, shake my hand- it's a pleasure to meet you
I'm not trying to waste your time
my name is Miserable & Full of Regret
but, i'm trying to change that line
up in my head are all the times that i've seen you
and wished that you were dead
but one by one, they turn and point at me
until i wish my demise instead

because, i've heard all the things you say to me
to hold my head high and pick up my feet
but, i think you'll agree
i'm not quite ready to go

we can look up
we can let go of this tonight
because we are alive, and we're not alone
i'm finding love within the light

without a doubt, i am full of hesitation
i'm positive that i'm unsure
that the disease in my lungs that is keeping me from singing
is so lonely without a cure
inside my heart, just a few inches over
i can hear a stronger beat
it's the only thing that keeps me alive
the only thing that drives my feet

because i've heard what you've said and i figured it out
to hold my head high and just go about
with a smile on my face
because i know, in the end, the sun will come out again

we can look up
we can let go of this tonight
because we are alive, and we're not alone
i'm finding love within the light

i'll say, "i believe you when you tell me there is still a silver lining"
i'll say, "i believe you when i wake up and the sun is brightly shining"

because i've heard what you've said and i figured it out
to hold my head high and just go about
with a smile on my face
because i know, in the end, the sun will come out again

we can look up
we can let go of this tonight
because we are alive, and we're not alone
i'm finding love within the light
