In The Shadows.

They look into our eyes,
And the things they promise,
They make us believe.
You are destined for greatness.
You will be great.
The world stands no chance.
Three years from now,
When you're a failure.
When you feel this and you look back,
Look back into their eyes and you feel that intensity.
The intensity of faith, that beam of light.
Running through the shadows in your head.
Could you go back in time and look away.
Could you say what you've always wanted to say.
Walk out of the room before it catches fire.
Look away when the stars fall.
Could you have done it differently?
Would it bring you to peace?
To do it all over again,
To go through the changes,
The way this world would've been.
If you'd lost.
The way this world would've been.
If you'd acted differently,
How you change the people that surround you.
That look in yours eyes when they see you.
Would you change that just to change them?
Just to feel the greatness.
Where you really destined for greatness?
Or did you let them push their words,
Just too far down your heart,
Too far into the shadows.
