Sleeping Giant

[Verse 1]
Some will be driven by conflict
Others will fight the good fight
Some will rely on the darkness
Some will rely on the light
Some elevate with compassion
Yearning for knowledge and peace
Some motivate through aggression
Selfishly serve their own needs

[Chorus]
Shadows disappear at night
Buried out of fear
Driven underground
Hidden lies the rage inside
Like a ticking bomb
That doesn't make a sound

[Verse 2]
People will obsess
With suffering and death
Questioning their own desires
This morbid fascination renders us possessed
By our violent and destructive side

[Verse 3]
When we lay our armor down
Fragments of our love
Slip through the cracks of hate
But the raging storm below
Will never go away
If it is not embraced

[Chorus]
Shadows disappear at night
Buried out of fear
Driven underground
Hidden lies the rage inside
Like a ticking bomb
That doesn't make a sound

[Chorus]
Shadows disappear at night
Harmless as a dove
Clever like a snake
Hidden lies the rage inside
Like a sleeping giant
One we dare not wake

[Outro]
Standing under the eclipse
Are we sheltered and concealed
Or bathing in its glow?
Our desires and ambitions
And our need to believe there is good in this world
Spin a common thread
