Mark Lanegan
Invisible Lantern
[Verse 1]
Locked in this darkened room, a timeless view
Shall I not ponder everything inside
Can't escape my mind
I just let the shadow rot through my soul
[Chorus]
But I got illumination on the street
Just a flash of confusion when we meet
My invisible lantern, it's my invisible lantern
[Verse 2]
Anxious echoes seal the door
Shoes on the floor kicking in my eye
To all my friends I'm crazy and I'm shut away
The don't care about anything I say
[Chorus]
So I took my illumination into the street
Just a flash of confusion when we meet
My invisible lantern, it's my invisible lantern
[Verse 3]
The heavy warm lights shade me from the thoughts
That try to creep in my c-c-c-consciousness
Transparent wheels always make me feel
Like I've never been in the right dimension
The girl I've been seeking through all these dreams
Dissolves with a touch 'cause nothing's left to see
I imagine myself outside with you
And there everyone's whispering only what's true
[Chorus]
That I got illumination on the street
Just a flash of confusion when we meet
My invisible lantern, it's my invisible lantern
My invisible lantern, my invisible lantern
