Glimmer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Shadow of power is corruption
Shadow of love is rebellion
Showers of fire rain down from above
Burn the fields where the children play
Down in the dark is a lead-singed dove
Diamonds just can't save the day
The shadow of power is corruption
The shadow of jealousy is greed
The shadow of love is rebellion
The shadow of hunger is need
Showers of fire rain down from above
Burn the fields where the children play
Down in the dark is a lead-singed dove
Diamonds just won't save the day
The shadow of power is corruption
The shadow of jealousy is greed
The shadow of love is rebellion
The shadow of hunger is need
Baby used to hold a rattle now he holds a grenade
In a senseless battle daddy holds a spade
Down a black hole as black as the day
Hacking out the sparkling drops
Hacking out the sparkling drops
Of precious cursed suns to feed those cursed guns
For the price of everyone
For the hope of everyone
The shadow of power is corruption
The shadow of jealousy is greed
The shadow of love is rebellion
The shadow of hunger is need
