Light and Shade

Lyrics

I remember when the rain came down I was looking for the sun in the lost and found Days spent in Doom's company without my complicity Fleeing from Archilee's hound I feel the stab of the thorny crown A subtle shift in frequency Making me see things differently Light and shade Chase and fade My bravado shield A fragile barricade Waiting for the dead man's click If the winds change will this face stick Will I fight to live another day? The black dog standing on the bridge is every suicide's ghost It's choke chain held by Vertigo Temptress and perfect host Light and shade Chase and fade My bravado shield A fragile barricade You say... The gravy train has missed your stop Top under dog You can't make this drop Don't despair now Dancing to a different drum I feel my senses over run with waves of joy Spray on my face The world becomes a better place to be Sorrow shot by joy Sorrow shot by joy Sorrow shot by joy Sorrow shot by joy
