Dark Shadows Light the Lives


Gained success and shinning in the world

There were issues, came straight or curled

As a pigeon fallen and bleeding on ground

But it recovered and flew around

We survived with a surrounding as a stormy dark desert

Which didn't give us a drop of water, we were so upset

But it taught us to achieve our goal

So we made it a forest full of trees and light for all

 

The shadows of our past lives

Are chasing us with flowers and knives

Maybe they came with dark or light

But we know we should have a fight

We will accept the soft smelling flowers

As well as the sharp knife blade throwers

As the rain keeps pouring

No matter who is snoring

 

Bearing the pain from our head to below our knees

As a wild bear bears the pain of the bees

We will keep fighting until we win

No matter the dark shadows coming to us as a sin

Try and work hard with all dark shadows who fight

Make those lighted with your lights

You can climb a tall big wall

First start it from a point which is small
