Lighthouse

You were my lighthouse But you led me astray Following your brightness And gave myself away And now the ship has sailed Into your shore Only to find You're not there anymore. The sea holds nothing for me I want the waves to end Who knew that where you would lead Is where I've already been And I thought I escaped it What I saw in you But it filtered back every time And I thought I erased it All the things that you'd do But I just loved how you crossed the line You were my lighthouse But you led me astray Following your brightness And gave myself away And now the ship has sailed Into your shore Only to find You're not there anymore. I knew the day you would leave Is when I'd start to mend But now as you look at me I begin to drown in your sins And I thought I erased it The blood that you drew But when did your sins become mine? And I thought I could face it You aren't who I knew But every lie was by design You were my lighthouse But you led me astray Following your brightness And gave myself away And now the ship has sailed Into your shore Only to find You're not there anymore.
