Track 1:  Shadows in the Light
 

It’s the shadows
Hiding in the light
All our sins
We hope to keep from sight
Never seeing
What others try to keep
We all conceal
The dark within the bright
 
Her children knew the Bible
Could quote it book and verse
She seemed the perfect mother
The truth was something worse
 
She owned their private thoughts
Asked questions night and day
The mental torture lasted
Until she’d had her way
 
It’s the shadows
Hiding in the light
All our sins
We hope to keep from sight
Never seeing
What others try to keep
We all conceal
The dark within the bright
 
Each Sunday he was seen
The same spot in his pew
A pillar in the town
Yet no one ever knew
 
The screaming fights at home
His wife’s blows to his head
Until he’d had enough
Then her head also bled
 
It’s the shadows
Hiding in the light
All our sins
We hope to keep from sight
Never seeing
What others try to keep
We all conceal
The dark within the bright
 
It’s the shadows
Hiding in the light
All our sins
We hope to keep from sight
Never seeing
What others try to keep
We all conceal
The dark within the bright
