Aiding the shadow That has been above the world since time began Fading the light Within the hearts of those who plea for tomorrow Aiming to swallow Any reason there's to have to be a man Trading for void All of the hopes and dreams that we should follow All pressuring down won't break us Can't measure the life within us We can see the lies you feed Fire to the shadow Flame seeping through Break the surface that keeps us underneath And keeps from breathing One tear in the darkness One rendering it harmless No ways to measure who we are No shadow goes too far Waiting in silence As the dust around the land it seems to be Hating the life Around its horde - all the love and laughter Seeding the science of a hopeless world No room for you and me Screaming in pain For all is lost for the dark if we should gather All pressuring down won't break us Can't measure the life within us We can see the lies you feed Fire to the shadow Flame seeping through Break the surface that keeps us underneath And keeps from breathing One tear in the darkness One rendering it harmless No ways to measure who we are No shadow goes too far Pressure won't break us You can't measure life A crack in the darkness will let in the light Fire to the shadow Flame seeping through Break the surface that keeps us underneath And keeps from breathing One tear in the darkness One rendering it harmless No ways to measure who we are No shadow goes too far
