## Lyrics

* Transcribed
* Official

I don't know why

But I feel down

You need to know

I can't go on

I was a rose

I was an animal

Don't let me change

Don't let me go

All around is stone

All is soft inside

All that I know

Lies within emotion

Words remain unspoken

Lead me through the dark

All that I see

Came to me in colours

Lasted for a moment

Lead me through the dark\*

All that I know

All that I know\*

All, all

I need it all

I don't know where to begin

I carry more than you see

My dreams are bigger than me

Please bring me light

I bear a shadow

I call them back to me

So they could feed on me\*

All is stone

And all is soft inside\*

All that I know

Lies within emotion

Words remain unspoken

Lead me through the dark

All that I see

Came to me in colours

Lasted for a moment

Lead me through the dark\*

All that I know

All that I know\*

All, all

Do you know\*

That we're all

Turning softer inside?

We can save

What is pure

If the hearts can collide

All that I've ever known is

The universe is wild

Is the universe is wild\*

I don't know why

But I feel down

You need to know

I can't go on

I was a rose

I was an animal

Don't let me change

Don't let me go

All around is stone

All is soft inside

All that I know

Lies within emotion

Words remain unspoken

Lead me through the dark

All that I see

Came to me in colours

Lasted for a moment

Leads me through the dark

All that I know

All I know

All, all

I need it all

I don't know where to begin

I carry more than you see

My dreams are bigger than me

Please bring me light

I bear a shadow

I call them back to me

So they could feed me

All is stone

All is soft inside

All that I know

Lies within emotion

Words remain unspoken

Lead me through the dark

All that I see

Came to me in colours

Lasted for a moment

Leads me through the dark

All that I know

All I know

All, all

Did you know

That we're all

Turning softer inside?

We can save

What is pure

If the hearts can collide

All that I've ever known is

The universe is wild
