Emphasis Songtext
von Sleeping At Last

Emphasis Songtext

Death is promised to the bee
Whose sting protects the colony
Was its life worth nothing more
Than honey for the queen?

Life is a branch, and it is a dove
Handcrafted by confusing love
Sign language is our reply
When church bells make no sound

In hollow towers and empty hives
We craved sweetness with a fear of heights
Was it all just a grain of sand in an hourglass?


The smartest thing I′ve ever learned
Is that I don't have all the answers
Just a little light to call my own
Though it pales in comparison
To the overarching shadows
A speck of light can reignite the sun
And swallow darkness whole

Death is a cold, blindfolded kiss
It is the finger pressed upon our lips
It puts an unwanted emphasis on how we should have lived

Life is a gorgeous, broken gift
Six billion pieces waiting to be fixed
Love letters that were never signed, sent to where we live

The sweetest thing I′ve ever heard
Is that I don't have to have the answers
Just a little light to call my own
Though it pales in comparison
To the overarching shadows
A speck of light can reignite the sun
And swallow darkness whole
