lyrics

SHADOWS OF GIANTS

I guess I said some things I need to talk about
Dug a hole so deep that I just couldn’t get out
And I know why I’m here and that I did it to myself
But something is about to change

I guess I had some bridges I needed to burn
And yes I had some lessons I needed to learn
And I know why I’m here and I did it to myself
But something is about to change

And we swore that we’d live forever
But darling, people they swear all the time
And when you’re standing in the shadows of giants
It’s hard to see the light

Yes, I put my hand inside the lion’s cage
And I was not surprised when he bit back in rage
And I know why I’m here and that I did it to myself
But something is about to change

I guess I had some dreams I needed to live down
I was up so high I couldn’t reach the ground
And I know why I’m here and that I did it to myself
But something is about to change

And we swore that we’d live forever
But darling, people they change their minds
And when you’re standing in the shadows of giants
It’s hard to see the light

And we swore that we’d live forever
But darling, people they sometimes lie
And when you’re standing in the shadows of giants
It’s hard to see the light

The light!
The light!
