Where the Light Shines Through Lyrics
by Switchfoot
Intro riff
Verse/chorus riff
- Begin intro riff -
- End intro riff -
Post intro
Yeah
- Begin verse/chorus riff -
When you're feeling like an astronaut
Stuck on a planet even time forgot, and
You're a version of yourself, but you're not the same
You try to keep the wound camouflaged, and
The stitches heal, but the years are lost, and
Another bottle on the shelf can't numb the pain
- End verse/chorus riff -
Why're you running from yourself now?
You can't run away
horus
- Begin verse/chorus riff -
Cause your scars
shine like dark stars
Yeah, your wounds are
where the light shines through
So let's go there,
to that place where
- End verse/chorus riff early -
We sing these broken prayers where the light shines through--
The wound is where the light shines through
Yeah, the wound is where the light shines through
- Begin verse/chorus riff -
Ain't we all just Abraham's son?
Saint and sinner with the song and drum, and
We're falling on our knees, we all bleed the same
B (chug)
And the only tattoos that I have are scars
I got your name written on my heart
And the story that brought us here ain't the thing that changed, no
- End verse/chorus riff -
I wanna see that light shining
Brighter than the pain
ridge
Mama, ain't the blood just proof I'm human?
Mama, ain't the wound just retribution?
Well Mama, ain't the scar like a vision of grace?
The wound is where the light shines through
The wound is where the light finds you
The wound is where the light shines through
The wound is where the light finds you
Your scars shine like dark stars
Yeah, the wound is where the light shines through
It's where the light shines through
Yeah, yeah, it's where the light shines through
Yeah, the only tattoo I have
Oh, oh, oh, oh, it's where the light shines through
Where the light shines, where the the light shines through
Where the light shines through
It's where the light shines through
