Shadow of the sun (Revised)

Shadow of the sun
Forever im shunned
All my burdens have been cast upon
Now dying all alone, wandering in bereft
Far, far away from home

I'm just a shadow of the sun
I'm just a shadow of the sun

A flower melting down

Cursed in darkness
Plight with serpentine teeth
Rapes me deep
Burn like a falling star
Fading into the night
Never to return

Heaven within is dead, hollowed chest
A hole without a vibrant soul
Chasm that grows, swallowing up rays
Across the sands I walk
Footprints following me

Walking beneath my desert sky
Broken refactions submerged in my eyes
Shallow has become my light

Shallow has become my light!
Shallow has become my light!
Shallow has become my light!

I'm just a shadow of the sun

Jakob comes to me
When I'm at loss, everything's at cost
enters my temple
Spirit that lives in my skin
Wrestling with the angel
Upon the witching hour
Winds howls like wolves
Twisting, turning lighting crashes
Shadows of the fallen watching
Taking bets upon my soul
Celestials of the one hundred and forty four thousand witnessing for a miracle

Overcoming

Leaving behind me heavens highway
Streaks of smoke clouds from a sky that's been scorched

Im caught in between
Who I am now and who I wanna be
My walk has become weary
At this point it's a constant battle
Striving to survive, freeing my soul from out of exile
Breaking thru from the stains where I was made
My soul has defined you

For I'm just a shadow of the sun
Shadow of the sun
Wandering all along
Out in front of me
A single star that continues to burn
A revelation, something sure to come
Breaking dawn slowly makes her way into my eyes
Now a quiet sky

Woke up feeling...

Couldn't see this morning...

Though my eyes are open

Woke up feeling...

Couldn't see this morning...

Yet wide awake

Woke up feeling...

Couldn't see this morning...

Venturing thru the continuing mist
Embracing what could be my fate
Is all that i can do
Uncertainly up against my will
Deep inside myself I pray
For some reason I got the butterflies
