Illume

Illume says, "The candle that I burn"
A reflection in the window all the way to point dune
Illume, like it dances
I am a cliff dweller from the old schoolI like the coastal cities, I like the lights
I like the way the ocean bends into the city at night
It's like living on a working river this coastline is glittering
Like a diamond snake In a black skyI am alone now with my thoughts
How we could make it, how we could get out
What we've been through? All of the trauma
The smell of nag champra, shadow of a strangerI will not take you for granted
I wouldn't trade it for jade or for diamonds
Not for one minute, not for anything, I need you to be there
Just remember when I am haunted, that I was just so scaredI am alone now with my thoughts
How we could make it, how we could get out
What we've been through? All of the trauma
The smell of nag champra, shadow of a strangerWhat I saw on this journey, I saw history go down
I cannot pretend that the heartache falls away
It's just like a river, ooh, it's never ending
I cannot pretend that the heartache falls awayBecause it's just like a river it's never ending
It's just like a river it's never endingI am alone now with my thoughts
How we could make it, how we could get out
What we've been through? And all of the trauma
The smell of nag champra, shadow of a strangerWhat I saw on this journey, I saw history go down
I cannot pretend that the heartache falls away
It's just like a river, ooh, it's never ending
I cannot pretend that the heartache falls awayI am alone now with my thoughts
How we could make it, how we could get out
What we've been through? All of the trauma
The smell of nag champra, shadows of a strangerWhat I saw on this journey, I saw history go down
I cannot pretend that the heartache falls away
It's just like a river, ooh, it's never ending
No, I cannot pretend that the heartache falls awayBecause it's just like a river it's never ending
It falls away like a river, it's never endingLa la la la
