Shadow of Life
Embracing Inner Turmoil - "Shadow of Life" Reflection
Lyrics
We feign such fearlessness
We pretend to be fearless
Covet symbols to worship
We desire symbols to worship
To rid the hopelessness
To overcome the feeling of hopelessness
That feeds on each of us
This hopelessness affects each of us
Under eyelids we keep
Behind closed eyes, we harbor nightmares
Nightmares from the serene
Nightmares persist in serene moments
Doubt that hungers for me
Doubt, a hunger, exists within
Is gnawing at you too
This doubt is gnawing at both you and me
As daylight starts to wane
As daylight diminishes
There will be no safe place
No secure place will remain
In which to hide our beings
No refuge for our beings to hide
The wolves have been set free
The metaphorical wolves are unleashed
There is no inner peace
Inner peace is nonexistent
It was never meant to be
It was never intended to be
We cannot outrun them all
We cannot escape from all challenges
They grow stronger within us
Challenges grow stronger within us
We cannot outrun them all
We cannot escape from all challenges
They grow stronger within us
Challenges grow stronger within us
We won't find peace
We will not find peace
We won't find peace
-We feign such fearlessness
We pretend to be fearless
Covet symbols to worship
We desire symbols to worship
To rid the hopelessness
To overcome the feeling of hopelessness
That feeds on each of us
This hopelessness affects each of us
Under eyelids we keep
Behind closed eyes, we harbor nightmares
Nightmares from the serene
Nightmares persist in serene moments
Doubt that hungers for me
Doubt, a hunger, exists within
Is gnawing at you too
This doubt is gnawing at both you and me
As daylight starts to wane
As daylight diminishes
There will be no safe place
No secure place will remain
In which to hide our beings
No refuge for our beings to hide
The wolves have been set free
The metaphorical wolves are unleashed
There is no inner peace
Inner peace is nonexistent
It was never meant to be
It was never intended to be
We cannot outrun them all
We cannot escape from all challenges
They grow stronger within us
Challenges grow stronger within us
We cannot outrun them all
We cannot escape from all challenges
They grow stronger within us
Challenges grow stronger within us
We won't find peace
We will not find peace
It was never meant to be
It was never intended to be
Shadows will one day come for you
Shadows will eventually come for you
Shadows will one day come for you
-Shadows will one day come for you
-Shadows will one day come for you
