Divine Resonance - Shadow Lyrics

Willing, broken, unable
Fighting to preserve our seat at the table
Living in the moment becomes my addiction
On an earth that caters to my affliction
The weariness of light filled hearts
Live in a midnight world
Hope becomes the anthem
Of a generation trying to fathom
How a light can break through the defenses
Of a darkness losing in every tense, all because
The truest hope in all the world
Has already drawn near

If it's a war you want, it's a war you'll get
The power of pain and regret
The apathy of contentment
Are all powerless against
The shadow we live in

The pressure is relentless
Imperfection clouds all of my senses
I hear the requiem starting to play for me
The only name I call for belongs to my king
The punishment that I deserved
It was no longer mine
Time cannot confine me
The hope of history now bound to our tree
My eternity has now been purchased
Giving worth to life that once was
Worthless, and I know
That nothing in this life can take this
Hope away from me

If it's a war you want, it's a war you'll get
The power of pain and regret
The apathy of contentment
Are all powerless against
The shadow we live in

My soul is free from the chains he broke
The power he displayed invokes
I was so close to hell I still smell like smoke
Hope and freedom meet within
The shadow we live in

The shadow we live in
