Shake the sorrow
I have been learning about a prophet
Who has showed me a new way
You say your soul seems empty
And your beliefs left in dismay
We’ve forseen the shadows dance
In the twilight of the new year
The rain deceives the pain
When vows for eternity are near
If you have fought and just couldn’t win
And find your soul is fading to black
Think of things you could have been
Taste the glory and take it back
Broken homes may not cause broken bones
But it does darken ones soul
When you’re smoked out of your childhood
You tend to shovel your own coal
Broken free
From below the knee
I left the ball behind
But took the chain with me
It’s time to shake the sorrow
Journey on for tomorrow…
