Shadows Within

[Verse] In the darkest corners, where secrets reside Lies a side of humanity we can't hide A world of pain and sorrow, so deep and wide Shadows within us, we try to deny [Verse 2] Behind smiling faces, lies a world so bleak Hatred and anger, brewing like a creek We lock our demons away, so no one can peek Shadows within us, the truth we don't seek [Chorus] Oh, the darkness inside, it's hard to ignore The sins that we hide, begging to be explored But we keep on pretending, like we're entirely pure The shadows within us, they'll always endure [Verse] In the darkness we wander, lost and blind Haunted by the shadows that lurk in our mind (mind) We're searching for the light, but it's hard to find In a world consumed by darkness and mankind (ooh-yeah) [Verse 2] The cruelty and hatred that we cannot ignore The violence and injustice that stain the core We're trapped in the darkest depths, yearning for more But the shadows of our souls leave us wanting for sure (ooh-yeah) [Chorus] Caught in the shadows of humanity's plight (oh-oh) Longing for redemption, searching for the light In a world consumed by darkness, we fight To find hope and compassion, and make things right (ooh-yeah)
