"Lighthouse" lyrics

"Lighthouse"

Tongue tied at some gathering
Please don't talk to me
With bookshelf ready heavy speak
I can't compete

And I'm frozen
Frozen
Oohh

Lighthouse, shine out
Show me what's inside my name
Tell me not to be ashamed

"Come out," I shout
I'm bleeding out a backdrop I cannot erase
But I don't want to be ashamed
Of going
Going home

Humbled in your company
I didn't want to eat
The bitter bud of jealousy
But I fell too weak

Too empty
Empty
Ooohhh

Lighthouse, shine now
Show me what's inside my name
Tell me not to be ashamed

"Come out," I shout
I'm bleeding out a backdrop I cannot erase
But I don't want to be ashamed

No I don't want to be ashamed
Of going, going home
