Shadow Boxing

For every bright light that shines
A shadow is cast
For every heart that falls
A tear will pass
‘Til there are none.

For every shelter in use
A storm must wage
For every soul in sync’
The evil will rage
And another is lost.

Talk is cheap
As broken promises
Stay broken
When even honest hearts struggle
To find each other
In the dark.

For every shadow that falls in my path
A light is there
To show me the way
The way for one honest heart
To shadow box another futile day.

Another futile day
And why does that taste bittersweet on my tongue?
