"The Light That Blinds" lyrics - SHADOWS FALL

SHADOWS FALL
"The Light That Blinds"
(Brian Fair / Shadows Fall)

A crack forms in the foundation
A fault line through your defenses
Illuminates the essence
Once clouded by the myth

Store bought conformity
Force-fed duality, I warp reality

[Chorus:]
The comfort that you will find
As you remain hidden
The light betrays
Casting your true self away
You remain blind

As Vanity possesses me
I am turning further away
Gripped by a belief in empty words
Driven by the need to prove

Store bought conformity
Force-fed duality, I warp reality

[Chorus:]
The shell may wither
But the fire burns eternal
The shell may wither
But the fire burns eternal
The shell may wither
But the fire burns bright

You hide behind
... Cower...
The light that blinds
Blinds

[Chorus:]
We'll never find
What burns inside
You remain blind
Behind the light
