Candle: 

What if one night, 

The stars gave out? 

They fell over our heads 

Like rain from a cloud 

Would we be able to see the light? 

Would we be able to look past the doubt? 

What if those stars weren't really stars, 

Or they were never found? 

You don't have to pretend you're okay 

At some point everyone loses a game 

You don't need a light at the end of the tunnel 

When you're buried under ground 

And there is no way out 

I'll be your candle 

You don't have to end your story here 

There's still much more to write 

You have your flaws of course 

But you're still a beautiful sight 

But tonight you're gonna live 

This isn't permanent 

Stay with me tonight 

Because it may not feel like it 

But dear I promise this 

You'll be alright 

Someday 

You don't have to lie through your teeth 

You can say whatever you want around me 

I could never judge you when you never gave me a reason to 

When you're lost and you feel alone 

I'll set my words in stone 

I'll light the way for you 

You may not feel it in your bones 

But I see it in your eyes 

That you can win this war 

You can make it out alive 

Your pain may cause wounds 

But they don't define you 

Just look away 

From their gaping stares 

You're a shooting star 

There's no need to compare 

You don't have to hold everything in 

You don't have to confess everything 

You just should know I can be trusted 

I would never lie to you 

I'd never turn my back so soon 

When you're flashlight is busted 

And your lantern is rusted 

I'll lead the way home for us
