"Painting Shadows" by William J. Lever The dimming light (Where shadows dance) A final bastion of hope (For dreams that flicker) Bleeding in fractals of color (Dilate) To darken in hollowed eyes (The dusk remains) Wake up to deafening silence It's not the dream that will kill you But the reality you escape I know it's tempting to Bury your head underground Use the drugs as a crutch But it's the heart that's key And the yearning that will guide you To where your soul will bloom (chorus) Can't escape If you don't try Can't feel alive If the pulse has halted In darkness you can find the light We could be painting shadows Bring me back to the start With flaslights and blanket forts The shadow puppets That ignited imagination The spark of life For something more Than the monotony Handed down in generations Empty toy boxes, empty promises (chorus) Can't escape If you don't try Can't feel alive If the pulse has halted In darkness you can find the light We could be painting shadows Recover Recover Recover RECOVER Shed the weight of this trauma Fight back the dark that ails you Flashlight motivation Shine back the story that defines you Absent minded dreamer Kick start your passion Take hold of your dreams No one else Not even god will take the wheel It's only you that fails you Speaking in semitones Color coded remnants of self-preservation If you can't learn the love the light Then say hello to darkness

about

We wrote this song from both an inward and outward perspective on addiction. Both shedding a light on the life altering costs, and providing a number of perspectives within a spectrum of individual sufferers. Chronicling the duality between the side that wants to quit and the one that wishes to remain high.
