[ar:Sleeping at last]
[al:Yearbook]
[00:10.78] Death is promised to the bee
[00:15.46] Who's sting protects the colony.
[00:21.77] Was its life worth nothing more
[00:26.00] Than honey for the queen?
[00:34.98] Life is a branch and it is a dove,
[00:42.00] Handcrafted by confusing love.
[00:48.26] Sign language is our reply,
[00:52.92] When church bells make no sound.
[01:03.34] In hollow towers and empty hives,
[01:09.82] We craved sweetness with a fear of heights.
[01:16.96] Was it all just a grain of sand
[01:20.74] In an hourglass?
[01:28.26] The smartest thing i've ever learned
[01:32.25] Is that i don't have all the answers,
[01:35.90] Just a little light to call my own.
[01:41.26] Though it pales in comparison
[01:45.28] To the overarching shadows,
[01:48.16] A speck of light can reignite the sun
[01:52.69] And swallow darkness whole.
[02:02.99] Death is a cold, blindfolded kiss.
[02:09.34] It is the finger pressed upon our lips.
[02:16.04] It puts an unwanted emphasis
[02:19.97] On how we should have lived.
[02:29.68] Life is a gorgeous, broken gift.
[02:35.73] Six billion pieces waiting to be fixed.
[02:42.17] Love letters that were never signed,
[02:46.55] Sent to where we live.
[02:53.57] But the sweetest thing i've ever heard
[02:58.51] Is that i don't have to have the answers,
[03:01.94] Just a little light to call my own.
[03:06.39] Though it pales in comparison
[03:10.15] To the overarching shadows,
[03:13.28] A speck of light can reignite the sun
[03:17.46] And swallow darkness whole.
