Beautiful Times

[Verse 1: Adam Young] A spark soaring down through the pouring rain And restoring life to the lighthouse A slow-motion wave on the ocean stirs My emotion up like a rain cloud [Pre-Chorus: Adam Young] When did the sky turn black? And when will the light come back? [Verse 2: Adam Young] A cab driver turned to skydiver then To survivor, dying to break down A blood brother, surrogate mother Hugging each other, crying their eyes out [Pre-Chorus: Adam Young] When did the sky turn black? And when will the light come back? I'm ecstatic like a drug addict Locked in the attic, strung out, and spellbound [Chorus: Adam Young] I fought all through the night Oh-oh, but I made it alive The sun starting to rise Oh-oh, these are beautiful times This fight of my life is so hard, so hard, so hard But I'm gonna survive Oh-oh, these are beautiful times! [Violin Solo] [Verse 3: Adam Young] A bad feeling burned through the ceiling Leaving my healing heart with a new scar A dead fire rose, and rose higher like A vampire up from the graveyard [Pre-Chorus Adam Young] When did the sky turn black? And when will the light come back? We all suffer but we recover just To discover life where we all are [Chorus: Adam Young] I fought all through the night Oh-oh, but I made it alive The sun starting to rise Oh-oh, these are beautiful times This fight of my life is so hard, so hard, so hard But I'm gonna survive Oh-oh, these are beautiful times This fight of my life is so hard, so hard, so hard But I'm gonna survive Oh-oh, these are beautiful times [Outro: Adam Young] My heart's burning bad and it's turning black But I'm learning how to be stronger And sincerely, I love you dearly Oh, but I'm clearly destined to wonder
