Night Light - Louden Swain

Do you have some place where I can put down this load

So full of my feelings is about to explode

Walked a hundred miles with not a thing on my toes

Lately I’ve been looking for a friendlier road

A place on a lake with a dock and a boat

Nothing I fear more than the fear of being alone

Tonight

Let’s find

A fire

To light

The sky

Sock puppet Saturday

Strangling socks

Think about the bullet

And change all the locks

Looking for some meaning and errands and jobs

Got an empty chalkboard and a handful of chalk

Got an empty cupboard and a sink full of rocks

Got a lot of words but I can’t seem to talk

Tonight

We’ll find

A fire

To light

The sky

Never seen such a gathering of friendlies and foes

Got me feeling high and at the same time feeling low

Came in through the front door gonna leave by window

So reach into your pocket and grab your little phone

Take a picture, text it and I’ll post it to show

All the other people at this moment are so…

Alright

Tonight

We’ll find

A fire

To light

So bright

And high

We light

The sky

The sky

The sky

Alive
