Opalite

I had a bad habit
Of missing all this past
My brother used to call it
Eating out of the trash
It's never gonna last
I thought my house was haunted
I used to live with ghosts
And all the perfect couples
Said when you know, you know
And when you don't, you don't

And all of the foes and all of the friends
I've seen it before, they'll see it again
Life is a song, it ends when it ends
I was wrong

But my mama told me it's alright
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
Sleepless in the onyx night
And now the sky is open wide
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh no, never made no one like you before
You had to make your own sunshine
But now the sky is open wide
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

You couldn't understand it
Why you felt alone
You were in it for real
She was in her phone
And you were just a post
And don't we try to love love?
We give it all we got
Finally left the table
And what a simple thought
You're starving 'til you're not

And all of the foes and all of the friends
I've messed up before, they'll mess up again
Life is a song, it ends when it ends
You move on

And that's when I told you it's alright
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
Sleepless in the onyx night
And now the sky is open wide
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh no, never met no one like you before
You had to make your own sunshine
But now the sky is open wide
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

This is just a storm inside a tea cup
You're sheltered here with me, my love
Your thunder like a drum
This life will beat you up, up, up, up
This is just a temporary escape
But fear it brings you freedom
And I can bring you love (Love, love, love)

Don't you sweat it, baby, it's alright
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
Oh so sleepless in the onyx night
And now the sky is open wide
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh no, never made no one like you before
No, you had to make your own sunshine
But now the sky is open wide
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
