F#Death is promised Bto the bee
F#Who's sting protects tBhe colony.
G#mWas its life worth nBothing more
Than C#honey for the qF#ueen?
F#Life is a branch Band it is a dove,
F#Handcrafted by Bconfusing love.
G#mSign language is oBur reply,
When C#church bells make no sF#ound.
F#In hollow towers Band empty hives,
F#We craved sweetness Bwith a fear of heights.
G#mWas it all just a gBrain of sand
C#In an hourglaD#mss? B C#
Chorus:
The Bsmartest thing I'veF# ever learned
C#Is that I don't have aD#mll the answers,
BJust a little F#light to call my oC#wn.
Though it Bpales in comF#parison
C#To the overaD#mrching shadows,
BA speck of light can F#reignite the sC#un
And C#7swallow darkness wF#hole.
F#Death is a cold, Bblindfolded kiss.
F#It is the finger pressed uBpon our lips.
G#mIt puts an unwanted eBmphasis
On C#how we should have lF#ived.
F#Life is a gorgeous, bBroken gift.
F#Six billion+ pieces wBaiting to be fixed.
G#mLove letters that were nBever signed,
C#Sent to where we lD#mive. B C#
Chorus:
But the Bsweetest thing I'veF# ever heard
C#Is that I don't have to hD#mave the answers,
BJust a little F#light to call my oC#wn.
Though it Bpales in comF#parison
C#To the overarD#mching shadows,
BA speck of light can F#reignite the sC#un
And swallow darkness Bwhole.
