Exist - Spotlight's Glow Lyrics

A THIRST TO CONQUER
DWARFS ANY TRUE DESIRE TO CRAFT
A MESSAGE BUILT TO APPEASE
IN PLACE OF ONE THAT THE BEARER BELIEVES
A MAN ONCE TOLD ME THE COSMOS REPLY TO WORDS MOST PURE
BUT I WATCH AS THE LOUDEST SHOUTS DROWN THOSE THOUGHT OUT

AN EMINENCE COMPLEX
GUIDES WISDOM TO BE LEARNED JUST TO PREACH
HER MISSION TO BE A GURU
CHOKES SELF-GROWTH THROUGH SPIRITUAL MEANS
AN HONEST SEARCH FOR TRUTH CAN'T CALM THE FAINT OF HEART
IN WORLDS WHERE FAIRYTALES PUT MINDS AT EASE

I NEVER SAW AN ANGEL PINE FOR SPOTLIGHT'S GLOW
I'VE NEVER HEARD A SAINT EMBRACE THEIR TITLE OR TOUT ACCOLADES OF MERCY
UNASSUMING SYMPATHY

BEST SHOUT LOUDEST
YOUR VOLUME MEANS MORE THAN YOUR WORDS
THE PEOPLE PAY MIND
TO THOSE WHO PUT RAGE IN OUR OWN SOULS
TO THOSE WHO STAB OUTCASTS AND PEERS
THESE ARE THE ONES THE WORLD REWARDS

TRUTHS THAT CAN'T BE HELD
LEAK LIKE WATER FROM HANDS CUPPED TO SIMPLIFY
THEIR MEANING WITH WORDS THEY LIKE

(SOLO: ROSSA)

BEST LEAVE NOTHING
TAKE EVERY SINGLE PIECE YOU CAN
STEAL WHEN NO EYES SEE
FROM THOSE WITH DREAMS THAT MIRROR YOURS
PUNCH BOTH WAYS
FOR THOSE ABOVE HAVE HAD THEIR FILL
WHILE THOSE BELOW MAY RISE FOR YOURS

AEONS CIVILIZATION'S GROWN
YET NO LESS ATTRACTED TO ITS OWN DRAMA, CHAOS, PUNISHMENT
STILL MORE BEAST THAN MIND

(SOLO: PHELPS)

TRUTHS THAT CAN'T BE HELD
LEAK LIKE WATER FROM HANDS CUPPED TO SIMPLIFY
THEIR MEANING WITH WORDS THEY LIKE

CLEANSING A SUPERFICIAL ITCH
CLEANSING A SUPERFICIAL ITCH

I NEVER SAW AN ANGEL PINE FOR SPOTLIGHT'S GLOW
I'VE NEVER HEARD A SAINT EMBRACE THEIR TITLE OR TOUT ACCOLADES OF MERCY
UNASSUMING SYMPATHY
REACHING ENTITIES IN NEED
