(Repeat this pattern throughout the song for the verse.)

And I will not grow tired
of crayon stars and fire
The sunlight has punctured tiny holes
of light

(I think this is how the rest of it goes.)

I closed my eyes
I held my breath
I prayed for light
and gasped for oxygen
It wasn't there

I couldn't see 
to scare the shadow out of me
I couldn't sleep

(End with the intro/verse picking.)
