thea gilmore – the bright service lyrics
[verse 1]
i hope you rest tonight
i’ll sing it right
i’ll sing the bright service
and lend your heart a while
i’ll start to sing
you the bright service
[interlude]
one of the hardest things i think i’ve learned is
how much easier it is to see the shadows than the light
makes for a better song, too
“who wants to hear if you’re looking up, thea?
it’s the darkness that makes you relatable to
that makes you you”
and i get that, i do
but here’s the thing
it’s been a tough few years
i know you know, we’ve all just muddled through
but i’ve been paying more attention to what i pay attention to
and there’s a short in the circuit somewhere
and it’s deep at the root, at the centre of the algorithm
and the algorithm’s coming for you, make no mistake
it takes a lot more energy these days not to hate, doesn’t it?
but here’s my light (brace yourself, this won’t take long)
i got the choice and i think, i think i was doing it wrong
the choice isn’t which side are you on
at the risk of sounding dumb
i think it’s, yeah, it’s love
don’t get me wrong, i see the cracks
i’m still the belligerent malcontent original insomniac
and when i eventually sleep, my heart still takes me back
“born like a tsunami, a one woman army
took a pharmacy to calm me”
i am intimately familiar with the wringer
and when all else was lost i still had the middle finger
but now, i’ve learned the curve
learned to lean in
found some temporary meaning
and when i wake up?
i wake up dreaming
i wake up dreaming
i wake up dreaming
do you?
[verse 2]
just hold it tight
keep it in sight
tonight i’ll sing the bright service
it’s time to rise
just close your eyes
tonight i’ll sing the bright service
