They Cast Shadows

That's right

There's a cold wind blowing from the west side
And there's too many people getting gray and tossed aside
If their sun don't ever shine, does it matter?
They don't bring good news, they cast shadows

Candlelights flicker, cast shadows on the wall
Shadows from a man make him look like a hundred feet tall
I gotta find me a better way
Wherever there's light, a shadow will stay
The world ain't changin' but I can start today

Father Time he's a fair man, he don't change his mind
But we can mess with the sand in the hourglass now
So we let the old folks slide under ladders
They don't bring good news, they cast shadows

Candlelights flicker, cast shadows on the wall
Shadows from a man make him look like a hundred feet tall
I gotta find me a better way
Wherever there's light, a shadow will stay
The world ain't changin' but I can start today

I gotta find me a better way
Wherever there's light, a shadow will stay
The world ain't changin' but I can start today
