Flashes of Light

There are no photographs

There's a twenty-year period blank

Did you even exist?

I'd try to be honest

But I've been trying not to laugh

Because I caught myself say it aloud

Now I can't take it back

Surely there's something more

Empty your pockets

And just spill them out

Onto the floor

Don't let me stop you

'Cause we need each other more

At least I need you

Sometimes nothing

Sometimes all

Of it out all at once

It's the strangest thing

We never thought

That it would happen to us

But every now

And then I see them

Those tiny little flashes of light

I've been fumbling

Around in the darkness

Help me out anytime

Surely there's something more

Empty your pockets

And just spill them out

Onto the floor

Don't let me stop you

'Cause we need each other more

At least I need you

Yeah, maybe it's time that we face it

Today, I'm in the mood to embrace it
