Shine Through Songtext
von Exit Stage Left

Don′t try to sing, don't try to speak
The words may cut your throat
The world that′s brought before the meek
Is strangled by the cold

We greet the cause with thunderous applause
Yet approach the end with visible contempt


Melodic lines in an unknown tongue
Whistles gently past your ear
A last song by the spark of life
Before it disappears

A once dear friend who'll never sing again
A silent vow drowned out by the crowd

When will the light shine through
When will it fall on me and you
Do we deserve to know how the poison feels

When will the light shine through
When will it fall on me and you
When do we get our share
It's hard to believe that no one cared
