Under the Lone Lamp

[Verse]
The night breathes heavy the world turns black
A lone lamp burns where the shadows stack
Its light is frail but it knows my name
I sit and speak to it just the same
[Chorus]
Under the lone lamp my stories unfold
It’s the keeper of secrets the heat in the cold
It listens it glows it never lets go
Under the lone lamp where I let myself show
[Verse 2]
The streets are empty the silence is loud
I sit on the edge of the darkened crowd
Whispering truths I can't tell the day
The lamp never judges it lights my way
[Prechorus]
Its hum is a hymn its warmth a friend
It’s the only place where my fears can end
[Chorus]
Under the lone lamp my stories unfold
It’s the keeper of secrets the heat in the cold
It listens it glows it never lets go
Under the lone lamp where I let myself show
[Bridge]
Does it feel the weight of my broken songs
Does it wonder how I carry on
A bulb of glass yet it holds my heart
In its fragile glow I restart
