hmm hmm ah ah hmm ah hmm
hmm hmm ah ah hmm ah hmm

Chance’s eyes wane in the fading light
no fight left as he melts
in reflections
surrender to survival
aflame with apprehension

affliction (oh oh oh oh oh)
liberation 
immersion (oh oh oh oh oh)
resolution

(who oh oh oh oh oh)

another day gone away
no more delay for reprise
every act on display
every word summarized

when light shrinks to a sliver
so deliverance waits 
in a shadow on the wall
the examiner of fates
(oh oh oh oh oh)
standin’ eight feet tall

The king enters the room
demands all rise
the KING
will curry no compromise…

(woah oh oh oh oh oh)

all secrets are laid bare
nothing spared from the judge
speak not or all it will be known
wrenching thought
from every part of his soul

the Shadow King 
starts examining events of the day
leaves nothing unknown
he invites and indites
justifies or condemns with a jury of his own

witness blames or allies
no justice denied
no presumption excused
Chance begins his adjudications

The king enters the room
demands all rise
the KING
will curry no compromise

Shadow King
reigns for truth
he pierces motivation
nothing escapes
reward or denunciation

Shadow King knows his heart
abides his mind
wields the sword
and guides the blind

Chance has no chance but through

(whoa oh oh oh oh oh)

no quarter taken 
and none given
both saint and brigund
calls him to the stand without restraint 
tell him your every word in action

run…he will not abide
hide…he will not step aside
no favors taken by the Shadow King 
No matter the matter justice will ring

he can bow stay alive and thrive
or stand proud and lie 
his soul will lose substance 
from the bleeding wound of his ascendance

The king leaves the chamber
another trial gone by
the 
KING
made no compromise

Shadow King
reigns for truth
he pierces motivation
nothing escapes
reward or denunciation

Shadow King knows his heart
abides his mind
wields the sword
and guides the blind

King of Shadows…

(whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
(oh oh oh oh oh)

Chance drifts into peace
confronted and confirmed
by the weight of his conscience
the softest pillow

(oh oh oh oh oh)
