Emily, One Year On

Emily won't you please get yourself some help
It's no use saying there's nothing wrong, you're fine
When you're terrified to straighten up and step on out
I hope you get back that old lust for life in time

One year on since the whole shit show begun
And now the sun returns, I welcome in the warmth
How long has passed since our World stopped turning
Now the cocoons unfurl, and how I've missed you all, my friends

Lost one hundred thousand souls
And one turn around the Sun
But now a dawning age
The new wave
Who know we can begin again and again
'Cause we survived

Emily, I know you still miss your old life
And this ain't how you imagined it would be
Where did your colours go
An impressionist left on the wall
But you'll find a way to refract the light on again

Some days we got so frustrated
Locked up on our own
But everyone must have their day in the sun
You shouldn't be alone, come on Emily

Lost one hundred thousand souls
And one turn around the Sun
But now a dawning age
The new wave
Who know we can begin again and again
Cos we survived

Out into the dawn we stumble
Rubbing our eyes from all of those darkened days
Well don't be terrified, it's time
And summer's never seemed this golden now
Cos we'll make it
Just gotta hold on and wait out

We lost a hundred thousand souls
And one turn around the Sun
But in a dawning age
The new wave
Who know we can begin again and again
So to those hundred thousand souls
And the one turn around the Sun
We'll savour every new day
And fight to put things right again and again
'Cause we made it
We made it out
