Shadowlight Lyrics by Defences

Shadowlight

2024

[Intro]
Had to face the terror staring back at me
'Til I found comfort in the darkness
[Verse 1]
I sat in shadowlight
Had to face the terror staring back at me
'Til I found comfort in the darkness
Easy to push them away
Things we don't wanna embrace
Just close your eyes
Yeah that's alright
That's alright
[Chorus]
I sat in shadowlight
Had to face the terror staring back at me
'Til I found comfort in the darkness
And it set me free
[Post-Chorus]
(Set me free, set me free
Had to face the terror staring back at me
'Til I found comfort in the darkness)
[Verse 2]
Always been more comfortable at night
But I've learned to love the light
As long as I am on my side
I know I don't have one to hide
[Refrain]
No way out
But through all the demons
No one else
We do this alone
And I'm done with hiding from my own shadow
[Pre-Chorus]
(If I can't love myself, can't love anyone else)
If I can't love myself, can't love anyone else
[Chorus]
I sat in shadowlight
Had to face the terror staring back at me
'Til I found comfort in the darkness
And it set me free
I'm taking back my life
Nothing can stop me becoming
Who I'm supposed to be
Now that I've finally accepted
All the parts of me
[Bridge]
What does it mean
To really be comfortable in my skin?
At home in my own body?
At peace with where I've been?
No day without night
No wrong without right
No me without you
No dark without light
[Chorus]
I sat in shadowlight
Had to face the terror staring back at me
'Til I found comfort in the darkness
And it set me free
I'm taking back my life
Nothing can stop me becoming
Who I'm supposed to be
Now that I've finally accepted
All the parts of me
