Straight Line (Shadows Shine) - Original Song - Carson Kivari

While I was feeling inspired I had the pleasure of watching this song write itself one Friday afternoon.

Lyrics:

Hello little boy you look so brave here on your own
Who is it to credit how you've grown? Mmm
Is it the strong man who put the firmness in your hand?
You think you've failed but in my eyes you can't, mmm

Stand up and shake your head and look to the sky
And see how your dreams are right in front of your eyes
Get out of your way, quit with your tr-tr-trying
You think too much to go in a straight line
Just go in a straight line

Hello little girl you look so pretty while at war
But I bet that you've heard that tune before, mmm
Does it seem scary to find a...
Middle-ground instead-a playin' on the opposite sides, well...
Your weapons, they aren't needed here this time, mmm

Now lay down upon on your bed keep looking inside
But be honest with what you've been trying to find
Who told you that there's anything you should hide
To him you must know even your shadow can shine
'Cause even shadows shine

Now I'll be bold, I don't like it in the cold
It's warmer in here than you even know
But let's be brave, let's tear away our shame
Besides we're much too old to play these games

Stand up and shake your head and look to the sky
And see how your dreams are right in front of your eyes
Get out of your way, quite with your tr-tr-trying
You think too much to go in a straight line
Just go in a straight line
'Cause even shadows shine
