Narrow Daylight - Lizz Wright

Narrow daylight entered my room

Shining hours were brief

Winter is over

Summer is near

Are we stronger than we believe

I walked through halls of reputation

Among the infamous too

As the camera clings to the common thread

Beyond all vanity

Into a gaze to shoot you through

Is the kindness we count upon

Hidden in everyone

I stepped out in a sunlit grove

Although deep down I wished it would rain

Washing away all the sadness and tears

That will never fall so heavily again

Is the kindness we count upon

Hidden in everyone

I stood there in the salt spray air

Felt the wind sweeping over my face

I ran up through the rocks to the old

Wooden cross

It's a place where I can find some peace

Narrow daylight entered my room

Shining hours were brief

Winter is over

Summer is near

Are we stronger than we believe
