Ian Kearns - Refractions Lyrics

The silhouettes change
They fade into darkness and become deranged
Become one of the estranged
The thoughts never leave
I'm forced to watch and I begin to believe
Have my thoughts been deceived

The further in I go
Time shifts and begins slow
Sight collides in vibrance it glows
And the more I think. The more I start to know

Headfirst into the fray
My silhouette becomes part of the infinite array
And I can't run away
The eternal night
Once permanent pride fades into white
Now I see the light

All that you thought
All that you sought
All that it cost
And all that you lost
Couldn't save you from tears
And it became clear
All you saw were refractions in the mirror

Yet You still couldn't save
Emotion they gave
Now you are a slave
To your mental grave
And if credence you vowed
Kept his name proud
Kept you screaming high into the clouds

Then why do you even
Run from the shape
All that can't
Replace what they'd take

So let the refractions pull you in
Let the shape free you from your skin
Let the sound burn your soul away
Let the ones you loved leave you to decay

We all have to play the four chords some day
