Shadowplay

Fly upon a brainchild

With unashamed delight

Bending over backwards day and night

Our world's collapsing

Like a house of cards

A stagy farewell waits without regard

We are hanging in the balance

Are we beyond and remedy?

It was taken out of our hands

And we face a tragedy

Why, why are we here

On wild soil we roam

And love to call it home

We are vibrant with life

The will to survive

Ways to go astray

In this shadowplay

Skimming stones on water

Only yesterday

Into cosmic dust we now decay

Kindred souls and spirits

Bound by energy

Who can say what is reality?

Do we flog a dead horse?

Just eternal bliss

Leaves us back to hope for

The former times we miss

We are driven by emotion

And pray the bond won't brake

So strong is our devotion

Our being is opaque

Why, why are we here

On wild soil we roam

And love to call it home

We are vibrant with life

The will to survive

Ways to go astray

In this shadowplay

I have seen the cascade

The souls between light and shade

Not a drop in the ocean

Forever we

The spirit of infinity

Why, why are we here

On wild soil we roam

And love to call it home

We are vibrant with life

The will to survive

Ways to go astray

In this shadowplay
