Lyrics:
I don't need the sun to come outshine the rain
It eventually sets and brings the darkness again
It attempts to burn the shadows that melt on my skin
So bright that it won't notice I'm not trying to win
This isn't some battle I've already fought
It's left me with scars that I never forgot
I'm broken and bent all my energy spent
And I just want to find time to sleep
There is comfort in the candelight
that silent spark in the night
it lets the darkness play with the light
rather than running away
There is softness in the sparks you shine
I hope that they will stay mine
In the time that we have left
Though I don't know how long it is yet
I won't be alone
I don't need the moon
To scare the dark away
I love the way she casts
The shadows on my face
So gentle in the twilight
I'm just trying to be
In the moment, become whole
With what is left of me
I've been spending nights
Burning it all at both ends
I cannot sustain
I can no longer pretend
The light I can provide
Needs somewhere quiet to hide
While I find somewhere safe I can sleep
There is comfort in the firelight
That strength to last through the night
It lets the darkness play with the light
And I'm not running away
There is power in the sparks you shine
I hope that they will stay mine
In the time that we have left
Though I don't know long it is yet
I won't be alone

    I love the symbolism of her holding the candle with her bare hands like she finds comfort and peace in the light but needs to feel pain to be entirely like there... you know?

    Its good to see Ilanya again. Its fitting that she's in the song after watching the Running up that Hill cover. After the hell she went through including the loss of her loved one. Its so fitting. Now she's a tired warrior whose found peace and comfort from the light of a candle. Its perfect.

    I'm currently in the middle of a nightmare of a closing shift at work, I'm just feeling absolutely shattered with no sign of being done any time soon at 1 am. Seeing this song and hearing it is ironically that candlelight I've been looking for in this dark hour. Thanks, for giving me something to cling to

    I feel a warmth spreading through my heart from this. In my mind's eye I see a single candle casting dancing shadows in a small room with a beautiful full moon shining through the window on the house overlooking a port town. The gentle waves lapping over the shore as a cold air slowly becomes warm under the flames touch.
