Nico Stockton - LightHouse

This is for everyone who lost someone, ya know, along the way
That you had a special bond with
It always exists
I saw your picture on my wall, I wish I could just call
A lot has changed since you've been gone, it's not the same at all
I know they're saying that everything's for a reason
But damnit it's hard to manage when time doesn't help or ease it
The seasons keep changing
Told 'em take me back to the start
Before the only place I saw you was this space in my heart
Dearly departed, man
I know that it's been hard on your fam
I hope they know your presence showed me how to grow to a man
I hope you know how much you're missed
I could never forget
The time we spent
Although I know you're somewhere better it hits
Extra hard
Knowing the light you could've shed in this world
The brightest star is shining down with no regret in the world
So hey,
How can I say that this wasn't all meant to be?
'Cause I swear you've been looking down and you're lighting a path to see
Plus all of these ups and downs are just strokes of a masterpiece
And I'm painting a lighthouse, waves crashing against the beach
Shoutout to E
When you're down and out again
Just show 'em the light the we have together
Show 'em the light that's shining through
And if you're down and out again
Just show 'em the light that we have together
Show 'em the light that shines in truth
And I was checking in
To see how things are working out
I heard a couple things
But see that's all just word of mouth
So, tell me what's been going on, and how to hear your soul
I heard that you've been down and out, I thought I'd let you know
That there's a light that's shining through
It's brighter than the diamonds too
And all the vanity and loot
Can't always help disguise the truth
Like, what is really real?
And, what is really fake?
A lot of people say they're real
But they're really just a snake
Now that I know about it, don't know how much I can take
I wrote a song about it
Look it up, it's called "Mistakes"
I had to face it
Running from the past is hard enough
No need to chase it
Think you're running fast but lookin' back it's heavy pacin'
Gettin' you off track
You'll always come in second place when
You let it get you down
That's heart attacks up in the basement
Finding artifacts of how it used to be
When yourself is the enemy, it can never end beautifully, so
When you're down and out again
Just show 'em the light the we have together
Show 'em the light that's shining through
And if you're down and out again
Just show 'em the light that we have together
Show 'em the light that shines in truth
