This House Has Room for Everyone - Anything That Illuminates

She's too young for strings
For love and things
A fool to think
That she could be anything
Other than free
She's got her wings
Tucked underneath
Until she up and leaves again
So say goodbye
When grey takes the sky
And she'll take flight
In search of any glimpse of light
You'll squint your eyes
To catch a sight
Of the girl
That rises and falls each night

Farewell
She'll say to you
But falls back out of the blue
Just catch her
It's all you can do

She evaporates each time it rains
Never packs a thing until it's too late
She saves the rays from yesterdays
To brighten even the darkest place
She fades away after every day
Always leaving the same way that she came
She waits and waits for what she craves
Anything that illuminates

Patience is key
When trying to keep
Someone so sweet
When she pleads insanity
The territory
It comes with is steep
Your knees go weak
Every night it's time sleep

Farewell
She'll say to you
But falls back out of the blue
Just catch her
It's all you can do

She evaporates each time it rains
Never packs a thing until it's too late
She saves the rays from yesterdays
To brighten even the darkest place
She fades away after every day
Always leaving the same way that she came
She waits and waits for what she craves
Anything that illuminates

Just watch the weather and get to higher ground
She likes to keep her eyes open on the way down
Looking for anything that kind of even glows
Look out down below
Guide her where to go

She evaporates each time it rains
Never packs a thing until it's too late
She saves the rays from yesterdays
Brighten even the darkest place
She fades away after every day
Always leaving the same way that she came
She waits and waits for what she craves
Anything that illuminates
