The Lighthouse Lyrics
This place is set to break
It's just as safe from the outside tonight
And I want that
I face the storms appetite
From the lighthouse
And I want that
I embrace the storm and the night
Whole...
What do the waves have to say now?
What do the waves have to say now, now?
Slow now
And let the waves have their way now
Slow
And let the waves have their day
And I want that
Here I’ve been living, unloosened from sin
Upward and outward, "Begin, begin."
It's just as safe from the outside tonight
And I want that
I face the storms appetite
From the lighthouse
And I want that
I embrace the storm and the night
Whole...
What do the waves have to say now?
What do the waves have to say now, now?
Slow now
And let the waves have their way now
Slow
And let the waves have their day
And I want that
Here I’ve been living, unloosened from sin
Upward and outward, "Begin, begin."
About
Genius Annotation
The band’s previous bassist, Carlos Dengler, said that the moment Daniel brought in the riff for the song, it would be something different from anything they’ve done before.
Though it was a challenge, the band members were happy with the outcome.
Carlos in an interview with Chart Attack:
We knew from the moment Daniel brought that riff in that this song was going to be a different beast from anything we’ve done before. So that in particular was a challenge. I mean, the rockabilly thing was a challenge, but at least we knew there was going to be drums and bass. But with this one we were like, all bets are off. We were very happy with the outcome.
