Kahn Morbee – The Candle Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Night time gobbles up the sun like some
All you can eat buffet, not satisfied with a meal for one
Stars pierce the skies
Like bullet holes in violent times
The moon paints itself on a canvas
Blacker than the heart of Hades

[Chorus]

If the devil and the Lord decide to talk
I’m not picking sides
I don’t really mind
As long as there’s compromise
I’ve tasted good and I’ve tasted bad
I’m in between the inside
There’ll be good times, there’ll be bad times
I’ll be by your side
I’ll be the candle, when your days are dark [x2]

[Verse 2]

City lights flicker up the skies
Like a jewellery box for the gods
Mankind’s excess has filled the world with regrets
You read the news today
It left you cold and so afraid
It’s black and white, is full of fright
I’ll keep you safe throughout your life

[Chorus]

If the devil and the Lord both drop their swords
I’m sure we’ll be just fine
Nothing’s ever solved through turmoil and fight
Flavours tasted we need to savour
The sugar and spice we call life
When midnight sweeps the skies
I’ll be your guiding light
I’ll be the candle, when your days are dark
Yes, I’ll be the candle, when your days are darkest, darkest, darkest
I’ll be the candle, when your days are darkest, darkest, darkest [x2]
I’ll be the candle

[Verse 3]

Crickets provide the soundtrack
To this nightfall’s stealth attack
Frogs the baritone
As they perch upon their lily thrones
Moonlight slowly dies
As sunlight comes to life
Exploding through the stratosphere
Like fireworks on New Year’s

[Chorus]

If the devil and the Lord decide to talk
I’m not picking sides
I don’t really mind
As long as there’s compromise
I’ve tasted good and I’ve tasted bad
I’m in between the inside
There’ll be good times, there’ll be bad times
I’ll be by your side
I’ll be the candle, when your days are dark [x2]
