About this time of every year the shadow people come
They lay down their nets before they appear
Cause they know where we will run
They don’t need their knives
They don’t wield their spears
They just turn us on our own
With some hazy fog, and some well~placed mirrors
They obscure what’s right from wrong
They have robbed us of ears to hear
Every mourner’s on their own
The court seers warn the end is near
They find deaf ears on the throne
But i know there’s coming one who sings
And he’ll turn our hearts from stone
We denied the light right above our heads
And we sought it on the ground
When we lit the fires set in front of us
Their light cast our shadows long
All this earthbound light gives them room to hide
Maybe all our fire’s in vain
But i see a star burning in the heights
It could set this dark ablaze
Hear the dissonance of the northern wind
As it blows through empty pews
Hear the shadow people usher in
The final twilight of the moon
But i know there’s coming one who sings
And he’ll cause the dawn to bloom
Maybe this isn’t our fight
Maybe we’ll lose to the night
But maybe we’d still better try
Cause even the shadows can’t hide what is right
And even this darkness can’t long hide the light
