When the Shadow Falls - The Helio Sequence

On your shoulders is the weight you bear

On the roadside you are waiting there

Cash in your insurance claims

The one night stands and sad refrains

Of all the stories you have blamed making trouble

We won’t be there when the shadow falls

We won’t be there when the shadow falls

In the shallow where you thought you’d run

When you see there you’re the only one

Cast off your withholding chains

Your one-time plans and sad remains

Of all the things you left behind

Taking all your time

We won’t be there when the shadow falls

We won’t be there when the shadow falls

No we won’t be there

We won’t be there when the shadow falls

Before the blinding light of day

Before the morning light you slip away

You can hold yourself to promises so far betrayed

You could take yourself to somewhere so far away

We won’t be there when the shadow falls

We won’t be there when the shadow falls
