the band - shadows and light - concert version lyrics
every picture has its shadows
and it has some source of light
blindness and sight
the perils of benefactors
and the blessings of parasites
blindness and sight
we are threatened by all things
by the devil of cruelty
just as we’re drawn to all things
by the devil of delight
mythical devil of the ever+present laws
giving us our usual blindness and our occasional insight
suntans in reservation dining rooms
pale miners in their lantern rays
just like night and day
look at these hostagе smiles on your presidents
you see “freedom” scribblеd in the subway
isn’t that like night, night and day?
oh, we are threatened by all things
by the god of cruelty
just as we’re drawn to all things
by the sweet god of delight
mythical god credited with all these things in the whole wide world
keeper of day and night
critics of all expression
judges in black and white
saying, “this is wrong
this is wrong and i’m gonna tell you what’s right”
compelled by prescribed standards
by our backgrounds of our troubles and our ideals we all fight
wrong and right
and we are threatened by all things
we are men of cruelty
and we’re drawn to all things
sweet, sweet, sweet men of delight
man who makes these laws
same man who’s gonna go along and break those laws
wrong and right
blindness and sight
the sun and the moon and day and night
day and night
