[Chorus 1]
Moving in and out of the shadow
It's no easy mission, holding on to how I picture you
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus 2]
Showing only bits and pieces
'Til the tide betrays you and your empty allocution
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Bridge]
Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of humility
Searching your eyes for the saint is an act of futility
Searching your eyes for a hint or trace of it
Searching your eyes for humility
Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace
I'm still searching, searching
[Chorus 1]
Showing only bits and pieces
'Til the light betrays you and your empty allocution
[Refrain]
Rode the piper by and down the river
Carcass crippled underneath the pounding waves of adoration
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Refrain]
Pied Piper float on down the river
Bloated carcass crippled me, the weight of adoration
[Chorus 2]
Moving in and out of the shadow
It's no easy mission, holding on to how I picture you
