White Light lyrics

Vague reflection to stare back like a ghost
Dropping out to wake with a bolt
It's all a moment everything will pass
Your heart grows from your mistakes

What's in a number? 27 years
Not long enough to learn from your tears
Not long enough to live with the fear
That you just mightn't be done before your time

And all of the beauty, all of the pain
Everything borrowed, won't happen again
And all that's left is love

White light, shine on a prodigy
Not yet, unfinished symphony
I can't breathe, see what you could've been
You gotta live long enough to learn how to live

Snapshot, a fading Polaroid
Of a girl too sensitive a soul
This flash is blinding, your hand over your eyes
Don't wanna see, can't take the glare

And all of the beauty, all of the pain
Everything borrowed, won't happen again
And all that's left is love

White light, shine on a prodigy
Not yet, unfinished symphony
I can't breathe, see what you could've been
You gotta live long enough to learn how to live

Curtain fade into memory
Too young wasted a tragedy
Turn back, be who you'll only be
When you live long enough to learn how to live

Gotta live long enough to learn how to live
Gotta live long enough to learn how to live
Gotta live long enough to learn how to live
You gotta live long enough to learn how to live

White light, shine on a prodigy
Not yet, unfinished symphony
I can't breathe, see what you could've been
You gotta live long enough to learn how to live

White light, shine on a prodigy
Not yet, unfinished symphony
I can't breathe, see what you could've been
You gotta live long enough to learn how to live

Curtain fade into memory
Too young wasted a tragedy
Turn back, be who you'll only be
When you live long enough to learn how to live

White light...
