Terrible Light Songtext
von Secret Machines

A place so empty
A frozen stillness sun

I was the silent one
Before a warming glow [?]

What was this faith [?]
That burned a hole in you

And from the faintest spot
Under the palest sky

There was a glorious fire (was a glorious fire)
Became a terrible light (came a terrible light)

Flashing in each others eyes (flashing in your eyes)
Was the burning of our desires


How could I have known (was a glorious fire)
What a ray came beneath [?] (came a terrible light)

Everything is second truth [?] (flashing in your eyes)
There is nothing we could have changed

How could this happen
We were ... [?]

Another flowering bloom
Before ... [?]

Yesterday′s roses
Scattered in broken glass

It was a ... [?]
Is this how it will end [?]

And as I watch you walk away
You refuse to be replaced
You refuse to be replaced
