"Lanterns Lit (Among The Living)" lyrics

"Lanterns Lit (Among The Living)"

Should I look among the living or the dead
If I'm searching for you
I'm opening our shallow rooms
Spinning searchlights around for you
Your shadows won't climb my walls
But you've left your prints on me
But you've left your prints on me

If you had a single flaw
You just could not last forever, could you?
You just could not last for me

Memory rushes in then washes you away
I am losing you to the sea
I'll break from the weight of my mind
But your ghost I will gladly bear
But your ghost I will gladly bear

And with all your grief in my arms
I will labor by singing light

I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit

If you had a single flaw
You just could not last forever, could you?
You just could not last for me
