Cotton candy promises delight,
but in the end it leaves you there,
more hollow than before.

You were there and I saw through the light,
and how to understand the sun
as day and so much more.

Chorus:
When the flash has faded away,
you know where I am.
There is nothing that I wouldn’t do
for you.
You know it’s true.
So, let’s leave all the polygons
and platform souls.
Drawn to fill the holes

Real is real and still it’s in my head,
how you sold a heart of gold
for precious stones and bread.

After all the lives and deaths we’ve led,
I’m surprised you’d choose to be
illusory instead.

Chorus:
When the flash has faded away,
you know where I am.
There is nothing that I wouldn’t do
for you.
You know it’s true.
so, let’s leave all the killing to the platform souls,
drawn to fill the holes

Bridge:
Step outside your mind and let the road show you the way,
maybe on another day
maybe on another day . . . . .

(solo)

Done is done with talk, and there it is.
Whisper on the wind, put out the sun, and make a wish.

Chorus:
When the flash has faded away,
you know where I am.
There is nothing that I wouldn’t do
for you.
You know it’s true.
so, let’s leave all the dying to the platform souls
They can never fill the holes.
