Halsey - The Lighthouse lyrics

[Verse 1] From a tender age I was cursed with rage Came swinging like a fist inside a batting cage I went swimmin’ with the Devil at the bottom of a lake And he left me there, by my lonesome He was tall and mean, with venom eyes so green Wanted reconciliation but my toe was in my keep I couldn’t find the floor so I was kickin’ with my feet But they weren’t there, they were stolen [Chorus] There is a lighthouse in thе middle of the deep And I’m still stranded on thе shoreline And nobody hears me scream And I’ll allure you like a landslide And I’ll show you lovely things If you rescue me with that make-believe The lighthouse by the sea [Verse 2] I met a sailor on a ship with promise in his eyes He kissed me on the mouth and dug his fingers in my thighs But a sailor ain’t a savior ’cause they only tell you lies So I left him there, ’til the sunrise Well, the waves were tall and they were crashing down He’s laying in the water, begging God to let him drown So I showed him all my teeth and then I laughed out loud ‘Cause I never wanted saving, I just wanted to be found [Chorus] There is a lighthouse in the middle of the deep And I’m still stranded on the shoreline And nobody hears me scream And I’ll allure you like a landslide And I’ll show you lovely things If you rescue me with that make-believe The lighthouse by the sea [Bridge] Well, that should teach a man to mess with me He was never seen again and I’m still wandering the beach And I’m glad I met the Devil ’cause he showed me I was weak And a little piece of him isn’t a little piece of me [Chorus] There is a lighthouse in the middle of the deep And I’m still stranded on the shoreline And nobody hears me scream And I’ll allure you like a landslide And I’ll show you lovely things If you rescue me with that make-believe The lighthouse by the sea [Outro] And the waves come crashing down And the waves come crashing down And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down)
