Falling to the wayside
I can't pledge to see a thing
While this world's still kept in darkness
Only strangers find the spring
But somewhere in your memories
Are the photos that you keep
Of some better times to file away
Down across these busy streets
Maybe soon we'll find the light to guide us
Enough to make it through this endless night
Resistant to the rules that might define us
But somewhere in the flashbulbs out of sight
Somewhere in the flashbulbs out of sight
Sometimes out of focus
Not aware of what's been taught
Always struggling for this image
Until it's everything we're not
Distraught and so you shy away
You want the future here today
Maybe soon we'll find the light to guide us
Enough to make it through this endless night
Resistant to the rules that might define us
But somewhere in the flashbulbs out of sight
Somewhere in the flashbulbs out of sight
There's a fire that's lit beneath us
As we strive to make this last
Now it's time to face our future
Because we lose ourselves so fast
And once you're lost there ain't no turning back
Maybe soon we'll find the light to guide us
Enough to make it through this endless night
Resistant to the rules that might define us
But somewhere in the flashbulbs out of sight
Somewhere in the flashbulbs out of sight
And this is where we start our lives
This is where we start our lives
Somewhere we can move across the night
Somewhere in the flashbulbs out of sight
