about

SCENE: Cliff and Lila's penthouse.

As the guests arrive for Cliff's memorial, Lila's grip on reality begins to slip away and she begins to assume Cliff’s personality while addressing the mourners. She rants about the submissive position in their marriage with sneering disdain while glorifying in the wealth that will come into her hands once Cliff’s estate is settled. Following this outburst, police detectives appear on the fringe of the memorial crowd to take Lila into custody.

lyrics

Radiant Light
(Lila)

When you find that you’ve sunk so low
you’re nothing but a worm squirming in the dark
through the caverns and the caves
of ignorance

Confronting how sad
how base
how pitiful
how low you really are

When your soul has been savaged
but confusion surrenders
giving way to rage
and the battle gets you high

If you’re looking for something in someone
that just ain’t there
You end up with a fistful of nothing but
Facebook hopes and prayers

Then a narrow opening appears
a sliver of sun blinding you
beckoning you
to come on up to the surface
if you want to live

Breaking your fingernails
crawling for your life

No one remembers your face in the dark
so you tunnel towards the sun
remind yourself that you’re the only one
who’s sanctified, holy and ready for the
Radiant light

Radiant light
Shining ahead of me
Where my sunshine will expand and explode,
to bless and illuminate the bones of the road
and baptize me to save my damaged soul
I feel its hands upon me now
bathing me in a river of liquid gold
Surrendering to the power of the
radiant light
