lyrics

Shadows ahead
Shadows behind
Fear stalks the wasteland
And fear is so unkind

Troubled times
Desperate minds
When hope cannot reach me
I consider what my thoughts of you might teach me.
In your presence, everything seems alright
You’re kind and you are wise
You’re a beacon you’re a light

So don’t back down
Stand your ground
Should I come around begging for mercy

As if your kiss could free me
Like Prometheus unbound
As if my steps beside you occur on hallowed ground
As If your presence makes everything alright

Talk to me of love
Tell me what it is
Beyond definition
And our fickle bliss

I’ll talk to you of shame
What has it ever won?
But comfort to the cowards hiding from the sun

Your presence is the dawn’s early light
Each shadow is a promise
Of the ending night

Night is cold
And the day melts my brain
Until I feel them the same

In this dark, dark night
May your heart find its own light
