Sparklers

A little speck falls into the sky
Rub against the night in a flash of a fiery line
Little specks fall, pebbles, dust and sand
Things we hold inside our everyday hands
Somehow, somehow
We come alive just as we’re flaming out
And we wish ourselves whole
And we hope ourselves pure
And we will ourselves different
And we pray ourselves upright
All the sparklers in the sky
Once around, if given time
They come out just fine
They come out just fine
The tears, the scars, the laughter, the love
The ebb and flow under the stars up above
How on earth, if we’re just floating on by
Can all this darkness breed such beautiful light?
Somehow, somehow
We come alive just as we’re flaming out
And we breathe ourselves calm
And we faith ourselves sure
And we sway ourselves evergreen
And we laugh, «Bring on the night.»
All the sparklers in the sky
Once around, if given time
Will come out just fine
Will come out just fine
Will come out just fine (Will come out just fine)
Will come out just fine (Will come out just fine)
Will come out just fine (Will come out just fine)
Will come out just fine (Will come out just fine)
Will come out just fine (Will come out just fine)
Will come out just fine (Will come out just fine)
Will come out just fine (Will come out just fine)
Will come out just fine (Will come out just fine)
Will come out just fine… (Will come out just fine…)
