He was searching
blindly night and day
This life, there must, be more
Breaking beauty
just to stay awake
His heart was like a stone
His heart was like a stone
And on the last day
he walked out in the sun
He only just discovered the sun
on the last day
And on the last day
when all his work was done
He only just discovered the sun
on the last day
All this rapture
right here all along
in scraps he tore away
All this color
in his final breath
exhaled the dark and gray
exhaled the dark and gray
And on the last day
he walked out in the sun
He'd only just discovered the sun
on the last day
And on the last day
when all his work was done
He'd only just discovered the sun
on the last day
blindly night and day
This life, there must, be more
Breaking beauty
just to stay awake
His heart was like a stone
His heart was like a stone
And on the last day
he walked out in the sun
He only just discovered the sun
on the last day
And on the last day
when all his work was done
He only just discovered the sun
on the last day
All this rapture
right here all along
in scraps he tore away
All this color
in his final breath
exhaled the dark and gray
exhaled the dark and gray
And on the last day
he walked out in the sun
He'd only just discovered the sun
on the last day
And on the last day
when all his work was done
He'd only just discovered the sun
on the last day
