The Brightest Shadow Songtext
von Empire Fall

I am guided by your light
Lost in the dead of night
My compass is the brightest shadow
You inspire all I do
The one I look up to
Your spirit is the brightest shadow

I came back to where I was once from
Worlds away from what I have become
Youth is war, too busy to look back...
Til the past attacks

With a blast
And I dont know how to act
But I′m forever attached
To everything that you left behind
Even if your body has disappeared
You're more than just memories
A doctrine and a cure for my fears


I am guided by your light
Lost in the dead of night
My compass is the brightest shadow
You inspire all I do
The one I look up to
Your spirit is the brightest shadow

The more I learn and the less I know
The less I believe the more I grow
Mama said, convictions are for fools
Life′s for breaking rules

Time has passed
The years have gone by too fast
But I'm forever attached
To every word that you left behind

I am forever attached
To every word every lie


I am guided by your light
Lost in the dead of night
My compass is the brightest shadow
You inspire all I do
The one I look up to
Your spirit is the brightest shadow
I am guided by your light
Lost in the dead of night
My compass is the brightest shadow
You inspire all I do
The one I look up to
Your spirit is the brightest shadow
