Bring Us a Candle
Candlelight Chronicles: Navigating Darkness with Hope
Lyrics
Bring us a candle - the power went off when the lightning struck
Request for a candle due to a power outage caused by lightning
We endlessly waited in circles and watched as supplies burnt up
Waiting anxiously as essential supplies burn during the power outage
It was some kind of madness that descends at the dawn
Describing a chaotic and unsettling situation that occurs at dawn
Never reaching the end of a sentence that no-one deserved after all
Expressing the feeling of not deserving a challenging situation
Bring us a candle
Reiteration of the request for a candle
Riding out the storms
Enduring difficulties and challenges with determination
Carving out a path
Creating a path forward despite obstacles
Pick up when you fall
Encouragement to rise after a fall
Never looking back
Emphasizing the importance of not dwelling on the past
Holding out for Christmas
Anticipation and hope for a joyful Christmas
To bring a little cheer
Expectation of Christmas bringing happiness
And wishing you were here
Expressing a desire for someone's presence during Christmas
Bring us a candle to measure the time now the clocks don't run
Asking for a candle to measure time in the absence of functioning clocks
They're showing it's 19 forever, we can't get the hands to turn
Describing a situation where time seems to stand still
It was some kind of madness that descends at the dawn
Reiteration of the chaotic madness at dawn
Never reaching the end of a journey if nobody knows where you're from
Highlighting the uncertainty of a journey without a known origin
Bring us a candle
Repeating the plea for a candle
Riding out the storms
Continuing to face and overcome challenges
Carving out a path
Persisting in forging a path forward
Pick up when you fall
Encouragement to persevere through setbacks
Never looking back
Emphasis on not dwelling on past experiences
Holding out for Christmas
Hopeful anticipation of a joyous Christmas
To bring a little cheer
Connecting Christmas with bringing joy and happiness
But wishing you were here
Expressing the longing for someone's presence during Christmas
We'll watch the horizon, with eyes on the darkening skies
Observing the horizon and preparing for challenges represented by darkening skies
And look for white horses to break down the wrecks and the lies
Seeking signs of hope and truth amid difficulties and deception
I saw three ships come sailing in, come sailing in, come sailing in
Referencing the traditional Christmas carol "I Saw Three Ships"
Saw three ships come sailing in on Christmas Day
Recalling the arrival of ships on Christmas Day, a symbol of hope
On Christmas Day
Repetition of ships arriving on Christmas Day for emphasis
On Christmas Day
Continued repetition of the arrival of ships on Christmas Day
On Christmas Day
Further emphasis on the significant arrival of ships on Christmas Day
We can see the stars
Acknowledging the beauty of the stars illuminating the dark sky
Lighting up the sky
Describing the stars breaking through darkness
Breaking through the dark
Highlighting the transformative power of light piercing through darkness
Glowing in your eyes
Noting the radiance in someone's eyes
Holding out for Christmas
Reiteration of holding out for a joyous Christmas
To bring a little cheer
Connecting Christmas with bringing happiness and cheer
Still wishing you were here
Continued longing for someone's presence during Christmas
