lyrics

The ballet sold out as a masquerade
The marquee set by wolves dressed like sheep on parade
While monsters remain in the dark, in the shade
Shed light on my soul, shed light on my soul

There’s a man in the mirror that hates to be seen
He’d rather sit in the dark and avoid their screams
But You keep telling me to come into the light
You’ve never been one for foul play or smoke screens

You won’t find me in Moses’ chair
Throwing stones or splitting hairs

The ballet sold out as a masquerade
The marquee set by wolves dressed like sheep on parade
While monsters remain in the dark, in the shade
Shed light on my soul, shed light on my soul

I don’t want to wear another king’s crown
Or put on some rags for his charity
But I’m not sure who I am, nor how to be noble
So naked I come, I trust that You’ll clothe me

You won’t find me in Moses chair
Throwing stones or splitting hairs

The ballet sold out as a masquerade
The marquee set by wolves dressed like sheep on parade
While monsters remain in the dark, in the shade
Shed light on my soul, shed light on my soul

You won’t find me all dressed in white
While I’m as good as dead inside
You’re throwing rocks at my glass house
And tearing at my veils
Shed light on my soul, shed light on my soul
Shed light on my soul, shed light on my soul
