Projections

A light from behind
Shines on your mind
Can you tell me what you see?
Tell me if it’s reality
It’s not so easy anymore
You know what you see
You see what you know
It’s all you can glean
It’s all that they show
Feel the glow
A dance on the wall
If it flickers, they will fall
It’s all that I know
Because it’s all that they show
It’s a show
All the shadows seem to know
They say «boy, you’re goin' home»
Free to walk now from your chains
By nightfall, you’ll have it all
See who casts upon the walls
You know I always hear them say
«Today's the day that you go free»
Adjusting to light
But what you see is not quite right
Nothing’s the same
And now you’ve lost the game
It’s just a game
All the shadows seem to know
They say «boy, you’re goin' home»
Free to walk now from your chains
By nightfall, you’ll have it all
See who casts upon the walls
You know I always hear them say
«Today's the day that you go free»
