lyrics

Pre-Verse:
Verse:
Yellow cabs pass me by, hissing in the streets
Cigarettes on the sidewalk, crushed under my feet
Lonely streetlight shining down on me
Help me to find the way to where I want to be
Pre-Verse:
Verse:
Another day at the office, another night on the town
Just put a bottle in front of me, and let me drink it down
Another lonely barstool, another empty head
Another night of oblivion, another empty bed

Pre-Chorus:
Chorus:
Shine A Light ... into the darknes
Shine A Light ... into my heart
Shine A Light ... pick up the pieces
Shine A Light ... tear it apart

Pre-Verse:
Verse:
I don’t write songs about love anymore, I keep my heart in a cage
Throw my soul to the wind, like an unwritten page
Roll around in the darkness hang my head in shame
No matter how hard I try, it always ends the same

Pre-Chorus:
Chorus:

Pre-Verse:
Solo (Play Verse):

Pre-Verse:
Verse:
You talk about redemption, Honey, I ain’t buying
I’m tired of the letdowns, and I’m so sick of trying
Second chances, oh they pass me by
Scatter the pieces of my broken life

Bridge:
Maybe I could find my way, if I could only see
The light that shines on everyone, also shines on me ... Final Chorus:

While Eric & The Soo's debut album "Small Town Dreamer" saw Toronto-based songwriter Eric Brombacher looking inwards and backwards to his past and his childhood in his hometown of Sault Ste. Marie, his follow-up "Modern Dystopia" sees him looking more outwards and forwards, at society as a whole and at our future on this beautiful planet we call Earth.
Is there still hope for our beautiful world? ... more
