[Verse 1]
Catch some light it's a new day
I love you mom but I can't stay
I'll see you when I'm older, older
I'm fighting for myself
Wait until you see it, see it
I'm fighting for myself I'm fighting for myself

[Verse 2]
What's a light without a way?
Once alive we're warm and safe
I think I'm getting colder and colder
Oh mama that's alright
Wait until you see it, see it
I'm gonna catch some light I'm gonna catch some light

[Bridge]
Sunny skies look up and fly away
Paper rocket ships and aeroplanes
(Hey hey hey) Oh to be something that's never been
(Hey hey hey) Oh to be someone to become something

Close my eyes I'm at the finish line
Say goodbye leave everything behind
(Hey hey hey) Oh the dream of falling back to sleep
(Hey hey hey) In the early morning right before the
Sunlight shines right in your eyes
I was free and now I'm blind

[Instrumental]
(Ahhhh)

[Midsection]
Shed some light, where does it hide away
When you find yourself stuck in a maze?
All your bright memories stowed away
When your mind sets sail for another place

If I learn every inch and little turn
Will I wind up in places I don't recognize
Will I follow every little protocol
Only to turn out to be after all alone?
[Verse 3]
Is it ever good to be lonely (lonely)
Sometimes you're all on your own
Is it always wrong to be hopeless (hopeless)
Well it's hope you know it comes and goes

Could it be good to be misunderstood?
Could it be good to be misunderstood?

Could it be good to be misunderstood?
Could it be good to be misunderstood
I think I found my place
I love you mom why can't you stay?

[Verse 4]
I think I'm getting older, older
Just tell me it's alright
Tell me can you see it? See it?
Some day we'll catch some light we're gonna catch some light

[Outro Instrumental]
(Oooooh ah)
