Fly upon a brainchild with unashamed delight 
Bending over backwards day and night 
Our world's collapsing like a house of cards 
A stagey farewell waits without regard 

We are hanging in the balance 
Are we beyond the remedy? 
It was taken out of our hands 
And we face a tragedy 

Why, why are we here? 
On wild soil we roam 
And love to call it home 
We are vibrant with life 
The will to survive 
Ways to go astray 
In this Shadowplay 

Skimming stones on water only yesterday 
Into cosmic dust we now decay 
Kindred souls and spirits bound by energy 
Who can say what is reality? 

Do we flog a dead horse? 
Just eternal bliss 
Leaves us back to hope for 
The former times we miss 

We are driven by emotion 
And pray the bond won't break 
So strong in our devotion 
Our being is opaque 

Why, why are we here? 
On wild soil we roam 
And love to call it home 
We are vibrant with life 
The will to survive 
Ways to go astray 
In this Shadowplay 

I have seen the cascade 
The souls between light and shade 
Not a drop in the ocean 
Forever we 
The spirit of infinity 

Why, why are we here? 
On wild soil we roam 
And love to call it home 
We are vibrant with life 
The will to survive 
Ways to go astray 
In this Shadowplay
