Still

Pain paints the canvas
of a lost soul
a shadow wandering
looking for the light

These shades they seem to all combine
between dreams and reality
truth and lies
no justifying
no compromise
Just a shadow wandering
searching for the light

Pain paints the canvas
of a lost soul
a shadow wandering
looking for the light

Tears cloud your eyes
yes they have greyed my skies
cover the sun with your hand
your silence blankets the earth tonight

Pain paints the canvas
of a lost soul
a shadow wandering
looking for the light

I may never fully comprehend
no, I can't get my head around
what these colors mean
when life can be so black and white
But I can hope that soon I will see
Your beauty peering around the corner,
and an end to this longest darkest night

Pain paints the canvas
of a lost soul
a shadow wandering
looking for the light
