Verse 
            D#  Gm   F 
I'm turning out the lights 
            Cm  A# F 
To remember how to see 
        A#                D# 
Until a renaissance takes place 
     Gm                       Dm             D# 
And resuscitates the color of paint and divinity

As if God hid the building blocks

Of every beautiful thing 
                A#       D#

                 Gm              Dm                   D#maj7 
I can't help but think that ordinary has swallowed the key

Ice sculptures adorned in light 
       Gm             F 
Sand castles built tall in between the tides 

Cm A# Maybe I'm hiding behind metaphor Gm F Maybe my heart needs to break to be sure Cm D# Gm One day I'll wear it all on my sleeve F C The insignificant with the sacred unique
