Where The Dark Began

[Verse 1] I found a pale mark trembling over the roof Caught in the glass of an abandoned room Every window kept a different account Of what was waiting when the dust settled down [Pre-Chorus] I raised my hand, it answered late A little white wound above the gate [Chorus] There is a light above me But it never reaches my hands It draws a map across the ceiling Then folds itself into the black I know the way is open I know the signal understands There is a light above me And I am still where the dark began [Verse 2] The stairwell smelled of rain and old stone A copper thread led me farther alone I followed its pulse past the locked machine Past a room with no floor and a chair turned clean [Pre-Chorus] Something moved behind the paint Something bright that would not stay [Chorus] There is a light above me But it never reaches my hands It draws a map across the ceiling Then folds itself into the black I know the way is open I know the signal understands There is a light above me And I am still where the dark began [Bridge] If I look down, the room grows teeth If I look up, it blinks at me No door, no witness, no release Just that quiet geometry [Final Chorus] There is a light above me Thin as a thought behind the wall It leans toward me without arriving It promises nothing at all I know the way is open I know the signal understands There is a light above me And I am still where the dark began [Outro] Above the roof Above the wire A white point waiting Without a fire
