Shadow In the Way
Before a word is spoken
Everything is broken
Even what you hid inside
The world has let you down
Wrung shame out of your pride
Even as you falter
Like sunlight on the water
You shine on my face
The darkness in your heart
It's just a shadow in the way
Chorus:
Oh, just a shadow in the way
Oh, it's just a shadow in the way
When the fire leaves you
When no one believes you
When you give yourself away
To a stranger on the road
Who gives you nothing in exchange
Even when the door shuts
Even though the night cuts
Like a silver blade
In the morning you will find
It's just a shadow in the way
Chorus
Chorus
Though we're caught in the darkness
Don't be afraid
Though we're caught in the darkness
Don't be afraid
This world of sorrow
It's just a shadow
This world of sorrow
It's just a shadow
It's just a shadow
Got to get up again
And let the light in
Throw your tears away
That mountain looks so high
It's just a shadow in the way
Chorus
