Chan the Human - The Shadow's Dance

Late nights
You've been standing in the rain
Wondering why
All of these things come undone
Leaving scraps for everyone

Take time
Oh, these words they can bind us
Anchor our lives to that song
Carried forth from my palms

Well I'm not afraid of lies
Because I know the truth
It lives inside
And it's calling out to you
Begging to be exhumed (you're trying hard to keep it in)
You know the weight of the world is too much to bear
Their poisonous tones how they linger in the air
What's deception?
What's deceit?
Leave them behind
And lose yourself to me

Just lose yourself to me

Come along now
And move your pawn (you know you can't contain it)
I see your hesitation has come and gone (their drowning tones are closing in)
So free your soul now
And sing my song (and soon you'll ascertain it)
You know their wretched dance it goes on and on

There's replies to your pleas in the vacant air
Harmonizing, inspiring, it finds you everywhere
And if resignment agrees grief can then be spared
Hypnotizing, conspiring to find the fate we share

Open up your mind
Your soul's been begging you to find
That missing piece
It's waiting here so just concede
Cast out your fear
You'll find the answer's coming clear
One step, you'll see
It's just a shadow on your feet

Oh, these voices inside
They come alive
But I can't tell just which voice is mine
Their words, they imply
They'll save my life
But I can't tell just which voice is mine

These voices inside
They come alive
But I can't tell just which voice is mine
Their words, they imply
They'll save my life
But I can't tell just which voice is mine

These voices inside
They come alive
But I can't tell just which voice is mine
Their words, they imply
They'll save my life
But I can't tell just which voice is mine

Break yourself off from this
All of these things you've missed
Everyone's waiting for you on the other side

The choices you're making
The lies you're mistaking
The voices they do this for you to save your life

The world is not empty
So lose yourself to me
There's something that lives within you
Don't say goodbye

Just anchor your life to
Our song, how it makes you
They'll take you, I'll tell it to you just one more time

There's replies to your pleas in the truthful air
Paralyzing, it's binding, it finds you everywhere
And if resignment agrees grief can now be spared
Emphasizing, reprising, we find the fate we share

Open up your mind
Your soul's been begging you to find
That missing piece
It's waiting here so just concede
Cast out your fear
You'll find the answer's coming clear
One step, you'll see
It's just a shadow on your feet
