Light In The Shadows
Finding Light Amidst November Shadows
Lyrics
The darkest November day
The gloomiest day in November.
Pouring rain in our eyes
Heavy rain obstructing our vision.
A million things we couldn't say
Numerous unspoken thoughts and feelings.
Before you gave up the fight
Before succumbing to despair.
We blame ourselves
Taking responsibility and blaming ourselves.
Too busy, too blind to see
Being preoccupied and unaware.
A brother a sister lost
Losing a brother and a sister.
To another shattered dream
Another shattered dream affecting us.
In a world that chews you up
The harsh realities of life.
In a world that spits you out
A world that is unforgiving.
Days will come that you'll ask what its all about
Reflecting on the purpose of life in challenging times.
We're here, listen close
Offering support and a listening ear.
You're not alone
Assuring someone they are not alone.
We are the light, the light in the shadows
We represent hope in the midst of darkness.
Back against the firing line
Facing adversity with no escape.
A barrage of small white pills
Relying on medication, possibly prescribed drugs.
Medicate until you die
Prolonged medicating leading to a bleak outcome.
Paying some rich fuck's bills
Funding the interests of the wealthy elite.
The demons that you fight
The internal struggles fought during the night.
When your day turns to night
Support is available during the darkest moments.
Lean on us
Emphasizing collective strength as a source of light.
We are the light
In a world that chews you up
Life's challenges can be harsh.
In a world that spits you out
A world that rejects and ejects individuals.
Days will come that you'll ask what its all about
Questioning the meaning of existence.
We're here, listen close
Providing support and urging attentive listening.
You're not alone
Reassuring someone of their companionship.
We are the light, the light in the shadows
We embody hope, illuminating the shadows.
Another brother gone
Another loss of a brother.
Another sister gone
Another loss of a sister.
And we're just supposed to suck it up and move on?
Expressing frustration at societal expectations to move on.
These fucks have a chokehold, a stranglehold
Critiquing the control exerted on mental and physical well-being.
On our mental health
On our physical health
-On the things that we see
-On the things that we eat
-In what world does this exist, and we do not resist?
Questioning the existence of such a world without resistance.
In a world
In a world where challenges persist.
In a world that chews you up
In a world that spits you out
-Days will come that you'll ask what its all about
Days prompting reflection on life's purpose.
We're here, listen close
Offering support and attentive listening.
You're not alone
Reassuring someone of their companionship.
We are the light, the light in the shadows
We embody hope, illuminating the shadows.
