Once upon a time I was on a mind to lay your burden down And leave you where you stood You believed I could You’d seen it done before I could read your thoughts And tell you what you saw And never say a word But now that is gone Over with and done And never to return
I can tell you why People die alone I can tell you why The shadow on the sun
Staring at the loss Looking for the cause And never really sure Nothing but a hole To live without a soul And nothing to be learned
I can tell you why People go insane I can show you how You could do the same I can tell you why The end will never come I can tell you on The shadow on the sun
Shapes of every size Move behind my eyes Doors inside my head Bolted from within Every drop of flame Lights a candle in Memory of the one Who lived inside my skin
I can tell you why People go insane I can show you how You could do the same I can tell you why The end will never come I can tell you on The shadow on the sun
