where does it come from, the light
where does it go, the light
what does it do to me, the light

how does it make things, the light
what does it make me, the light
how do I make the light

where does it stay, the light
where has it gone, the light
where will it be, the light

what do I do in light
what do I do with light
what do I make from light

when will it be light
how will it stay light
