While Our Shadows Sleep Lyrics


(1)

I see you hiding – behind the glass

Watch the raindrops – coming down like you

I’m watching you – ev’ry day and night

While our shadows sleep – inside our hearts

Bridge:

You want to change the world

By your words and by your grace

Like the ones who tried before

But succumbed to the final chase

Ref:

Tear down the stars – light the pyres of your life

As I reach for you - Your breath’s becoming cold

A queen torn apart – by my hands full of fury

As I bury – shattered empires remain

(2)

I watch you facing – the pouring rain

Made out of tears – painted to your eyes

Behind the glass – you’re still hiding

Sleeping tight – on petals of white

Bridge:

You’re born to change the world

By your frailty and loss

Like those who’ve done before

All that is – all that was
