It's Good To Know

I guess it's good to know that you weren't alone
When the world came tumbling down, did you know
I was crying out for you anyway?

I guess my flippant thoughts all came at once
So I stayed behind as you danced in front 
Of the starless sky, how I wish that I was pure.

So don't be afraid of the dark.
We're alarmed, but we're still breathing.
Don't be ashamed of who you are
With a beautiful mind you just need me to believe in.

And if I try to shout then the words will cling
To my aching throat, when I try to sing
The words I want you to embrace are missing

So I dream of all that could have been 
In a seance set for a different scene
Where we'd learn to be so frantic but so happy.

So don't be afraid of the dark.
We're alarmed, but we're still breathing.
Don't be ashamed of who you are
With a beautiful mind you just need me to believe in.
