The Light And Shade Of Things (Live 2018) - Fates Warning

作词：Ray Alder

作曲：Jim Matheos

You confess a lot of things

But you confess alone

The absence of a person brings

The burning question home

The nights are long they turn to days

And sleep is not a friend

The voices though you hear them sing

Are only in your head

And you have not begun to fight

It slowly takes a toll

The burden of that little thing

Will never make you whole

And I understand that feeling of dread you're used to it

And those empty promises are just the same

When our time has come to end it's over then

It's over then it's over

The light and shade of things

The light you held is gone

And although people change

I know it can't be far

The light and shade of things

And I can't understand

How one is more important

Than the other

You're nowhere now you're nowhere now

I know that it's hard to find

A heart that's there inside

It's hard to find your heart now

Forget falling down forget all that you've been

It's time to face those broken promises

Oh burn the past this thing has to end

I wish that it felt strange that you feel nothing

The light and shade of things

The light you held is gone

And although people change

I know it can't be far

The light and shade of things

And I can't understand

How one is more important

Than the other

You're nowhere now you're nowhere now

I know that it's hard to find

A heart that's there inside

It's hard to find your heart now

Some roads are empty

Some roads just go on

And though you may walk alone my friend

I know it won't be long

It's not over not over yet

I know you can remember when

You gave away your heart in your hand

It's not over then it's not over

Over

The light and shade of things

The light and shade of things

The light and shade of things

And I can't understand

How one is more important

Than the other

You're nowhere now you're nowhere now

I know that it's hard to find

A heart that's there inside

It's hard to find your heart now
