You were my lighthouse
But you led me astray
Following your brightness
And gave myself away
And now the ship has sailed
Into your shore
Only to find
You're not there anymore.
The sea holds nothing for me
I want the waves to end
Who knew that where you would lead
Is where I've already been
And I thought I escaped it
What I saw in you
But it filtered back every time
And I thought I erased it
All the things that you'd do
But I just loved how you crossed the line
You were my lighthouse
But you led me astray
Following your brightness
And gave myself away
And now the ship has sailed
Into your shore
Only to find
You're not there anymore.
I knew the day you would leave
Is when I'd start to mend
But now as you look at me
I begin to drown in your sins
And I thought I erased it
The blood that you drew
But when did your sins become mine?
And I thought I could face it
You aren't who I knew
But every lie was by design
You were my lighthouse
But you led me astray
Following your brightness
And gave myself away
And now the ship has sailed
Into your shore
Only to find
You're not there anymore.
