Big Brother Darkness
I try to dance with my shadow
It turns its back on me
When light hits my face
And when the light goes down real low
It hides before my eyes
Leaves without trace
Big brother Darkness
Lets him hide anyplace
Big brother Darkness
He gets right up in my face
Puts me back in my place
He puts me back in my place
The only saving grace
Can’t see the egg on my face
My shadow is…
A dark reflection of me
My shadow is…
A dark projection of me
My shadow,
A dark extension of me
My dark side
Though only in light can I see
So let the light shine on
Let the light reveal my darkness to me
Let the light shine on
But from behind
To put my darkness out in front of me
Let the light shine down
On what lurks in the shadows
‘Cause only the shadow knows
The dark side of me
I try to dance with my shadow
It turns its back on me
When light hits my face
And when the light goes down real low
It hides before my eyes
Leaves without trace
Big brother Darkness
Give him up to the light
Big brother Darkness
‘Cause this is not your fight
My shadow hides in your shadows
To face the truth
And make things right
Release my shadow to the light
Release my shadow to the light
