Lyrics

Light Still Shows

V1

They set the tables by the waterline,

Salt in the air, candles taking time.

Kids ran barefoot through the glow,

No one thinking how fragile light’s though.

V2

Flyers said joy, said come on down,

Bring your neighbors, bring this town.

Summer night, an open hand,

Faith drawn softly in the sand.

Pre1

How did a night built out of grace,

Turn so fast into a breaking place.

Chorus

Faith don’t fade just because it knows,

How fragile light is, and still it shows.

Even when the cold wind blows,

Even when the dark gets close,

Even when the fear still grows,

We hold the flame we chose,

Yeah, fragile light still shows.

V3

The first sound didn’t make sense at all,

Just echoes bouncing off the wall.

Then screams cut through the ocean air,

And fear learned how to stand right there.

V4

People ran where the dark felt thin,

Looking for doors that weren’t built in.

Footprints crossed where prayers had been,

Blood on the shore where songs began.

V5

Names were shouted, hands let go,

Time broke into before, then slow.

Every second split in two,

Nothing sure except what you do.

Pre2

When the ground you trust gives way,

What do you run from. What do you stay.

Chorus

Faith don’t fade just because it knows,

How fragile light is, and still it shows.

Even when the cold wind blows,

Even when the dark gets close,

Even when the fear still grows,

We hold the flame we chose,

Yeah, fragile light still shows.

V6

One man turned when others fled,

Ran toward noise instead of sense.

No armor on him, just a name,

A stubborn grip on stopping pain.

V7

Two bullets tore the air apart,

Didn’t tear the human heart.

He fell knowing what he chose,

That fragile light still shows.

V8

Sirens stitched the night in red,

Hands pressed hard where life had bled.

Strangers held each other close,

Learning hope is not a boast.

Pre3

When darkness thinks it’s won the floor,

What keeps us lighting one flame more.

Chorus

Faith don’t fade just because it knows,

How fragile light is, and still it shows.

Even when the cold wind blows,

Even when the dark gets close,

Even when the fear still grows,

We hold the flame we chose,

Yeah, fragile light still shows.

V9

Morning came but felt untrue,

Same blue sky, a different view.

Shoes still lined along the sand,

Grief holding what it doesn’t understand.

V10

Questions hung with no reply,

Why this night. Why here. Why life.

All the answers fell apart,

Except the ones we carry in our heart.

Pre4

If light survives by being small,

Is that what makes it hardest to kill at all.

Chorus

Faith don’t fade just because it knows,

How fragile light is, and still it shows.

Even when the cold wind blows,

Even when the dark gets close,

Even when the fear still grows,

We hold the flame we chose,

Yeah, fragile light still shows.

V11

No banner fixes what was torn,

No word unburies the dead by dawn.

But hands still reach. And candles rise,

Quiet truth in open eyes.

V12

The dark can roar. It always will,

Test the nerve. Test the will.

But it never gets to choose,

Which flame we carry. Which we lose.

Pre5

If this is all the strength we own,

Why does it feel like more when shown.

Chorus

Faith don’t fade just because it knows,

How fragile light is, and still it shows.

Even when the cold wind blows,

Even when the dark gets close,

Even when the fear still grows,

We hold the flame we chose,

Yeah, fragile light still shows.

V13

Not fearless. Not untouched by fear,

Just standing when the truth is clear.

One small light against what grows,

Yeah fragile light still shows.

Bridge

No speeches left to justify,

Just shaking hands and open eyes.

The night can take what it can take,

But it never owns the choice we make.

Chorus

Faith don’t fade just because it knows,

How fragile light is, and still it shows.

Even when the cold wind blows,

Even when the dark gets close,

Even when the fear still grows,

We hold the flame we chose,

Yeah, fragile light still shows.

Outro

We don’t pretend the dark is gone,

We just keep lighting what comes on.

One small flame. One stubborn glow.

Yeah, fragile light still shows.
