You walk into The world you make You lose yourself But you, you find your way Going to watch you radiate Radiate Radiate Radiate We turn so slow I know it's hard to wait Take your time, son It's yours to take I'm going to watch you radiate Radiate Radiate Radiate These rocks they hold heat Pools of water cool your feet As you walk you believe Every part of the dream I see you lost In what you create All of time In this one single day You take it and you radiate Radiate Radiate Radiate Follow your hands As they build, as they shape As they follow your mind It rolls like a wave Take it and you radiate Radiate Gonna watch you radiate, oh Radiate These rocks they hold heat Pools of water cool your feet As you walk you believe Every part of the dream

It's cold out there This place is a hideaway Take a look outside Daydreaming out the window Gone to a place I'll never know I light a candle Snuff it out I want to snuff them all Can't contain what's inside of me I don't know And the mirror just won't stop staring Lay your head down on my bones Can't contain what's inside of me I don't know And the mirror just won't stop staring Stepped on a wine glass shattered it Shattered, Shattered It's cold in here Now your nothing but a memory So hard to believe you're gone Stick figures on the white wall Telling me that I should join you You're buried and your sweet scent is still on my skin I'm on my own
