[Verse 1]
             
There's a cert

              
ain point the 


body can't com

e back from
             
In one year, w

              
e've learned t

   
he turn of the

 mouth
    
The depth that

 the chest cav

ity takes

Chucky was the

re for three o

ut of three

I was there fo

r the third 'c

ause I couldn'

t be

There for the 

one who was cl

osest to me
              
But I can't sa

              
y I'd run when

            
 things get ha


rd
              
It's just that

         
 I don't trust

 myself with m

y heart
         
But I've had t

o let it break

 a little more
            
'Cause they sa

y that's what 

it's for


[Chorus]
              
That's how the

           
 light shines 

  
in
              
That's how the

 
 light shines 

in
              
That's how the

           
 light gets in

[Verse 2]
             
So everyone wa

              
s there, they 

      
were standin',

 laughin'
             
And I'm on the

         
 side with my 

           
tears streamin

  
' down
             
There's someth

              
in' about the 

 
clutch of the 

wrist
             
He thought min

         
e was his to c

           
arve into his 


mouth
      
We've only got

 hours
             
And I just can

              
't stop cryin'

        
 'cause all of

 the ways
             
When you see s

       
omeone dyin'
           
You see all yo

             
ur days flash 

    
in front of yo

u
              
And you think 

             
about who woul

          
d be with youu

And then there

Brought by the

              
 sunlight of t

 for it in Jap

             
anese, it's "K

      
intsugi"
             
They sang folk

           
 songs from th

But daddy, I m

In the snow-ca

 of the desert
         
Daddy, I miss
