"Shadows" lyrics

"Shadows"

I was staring deep into the dark of a cave
With apparitions dancing slowly on my imminent grave
Six feet down and I'm falling asleep
You know the devil's in the details, so I'm

Staring deep into the darkness of a cave
Thinking I could only dream about the light and the sun
Just a shadow on my wall
Thinking I would only feel the dark of night

These ghosts grab my throat, saying this would be all
I'd ever know of life, know of hope - all I'd ever know of light
The night fell upon me like the swell of a wave
Until the daybreak sparked the words of light
To turn and face the sun now

As fire fills my eyes
And watch the shadows die

Staring deep into the darkness of a cave
Thinking I could only dream about the light and the sun
Just a shadow on my wall
Thinking I would only feel the dark of night

Face the sun and the shadows will all fall behind
Staring deep in the light I now find
All the doubts of the dark and the night
Have been swallowed in light

Staring deep into the darkness of a cave
Feel the warmth of light
No more shadows on my wall
You swallowed up the night
I cannot forget
The brilliant infinite
Turned my doubt into sight
And swallowed up the night
Swallowed up the night

So turn and face the sun now
So turn and face the sun now
