Shots of Light Lyrics

Look in the mirror, check my hair

Pocket my key and take the stairs down to the street

I see the markings of despair

On the sidewalks and in the square, it don't look good

But there's a glimmer in the pall

Under the writing on the wall, the shots of light

While I wonder where the lines are

How much more there is to take

Never so hard to draw the beauty

Never been so much at stake

In the disrupt of times like these

We can get lost among the things that might be true

Behind the mask that blocks your face

All this fear wants to erase the happy you

While I wonder where the lines are

How much more there is to take

Never so hard to draw the beauty

Never been so much at stake

How to change the tune, how to leave your room

How to make a case for your survival

Telephony pings, online shiny things

Tired of just being happy I'm alive

Underneath all the bricks and bones

Everyone longs to have some hope to pull them through

At the end of Main Street in the park

Where the kids drink in the dark, they're doing shots of light

While I wonder where the lines are

How much more there is to take

Never so hard to draw the beauty

Never been so much at stake
