Light And Shadows

Light And Shadows

Verse 1

Common blockage, new barricades

Irregular state of restlessness

Past and present occupy the mind

Potential thoughts of future tied up in a bind

Conflict of luxuries and necessities

Half-measured and too relaxed

Downgraded from collections of existence

Floating among creatures and cargo

Verse 2

Clashes of opposing views

Lack of general consensus

Arbitration in high demand

To decide the way in which things will be

Minimum requirements generate minimum effect

Upping the ante will lead to renewed interests

Eager eyes of spectators will widen

In anticipation of being entertained

Verse 3

Limited appeal and access

A modicum of opportunities

Proceeding with a plan may be advantageous

Minimizing mistakes is conducive to a better outcome

Upward and far-reaching focus is challenging to conceive of

When similar backgrounds ignore natural status

And chase after artificial concepts

Chorus 1

Light and shadows competing

To reign supreme among the lives of men

Revelation and concealment are attached

To every place and person

Chorus 2

Light and shadows competing

To reign supreme among the lives of men

Revelation and concealment are attached

To every place and person

Truth and lies dwell in light and shadows
