Into the Lantern Waste Songtext
von Sarah Sparks

I met a man at the park on a bench
He was looking at home with a paper and pen
He said, daughter I have been through the shadow lands
For to hurt is to love and to know that you can
That you are not alone ′cause we all are broken
He said, you cannot diminish the glory of God
By refusing to worship like if locked in your cell
On the walls you write darkness to put out the sun So you might turn the page, or you might shut the book
But the truth is still truth, even if you don't look
He spoke to me then, are you looking for truth
Or is it wishful thinking and comfort you choose
On the edge of a sword and the night of the noose
On the way to your death should I reassure you
But the comfort will come if you search for the truth


See here I′m still stuck on these fairy tales
With a lion, a wardrobe, and magic unveiled
For there's truth in these pages, and each line I read
I'm the boy that betrays him I can clearly see
But the lion that saves him is bleeding for me
