Lyrics
Verse 1
THE LINE ON THE SIDEWALK IS SO CLEARLY SEEN
BY THE LIGHT OF THE SON BEING BLOCKED BY THE HOUSE WE SEE
OH YES THIS HOUSE WILL CAST A SPECIAL SHADE
WITH IT'S BRICK AND MORTAR FORM IT WILL DISPLAY
Chorus 1
THROWING SHADOWS, SHADOWS IN BROAD DAY LIGHT
THROWING SHADOWS, SHADOWS TO DIM THE LIGHT
THROWING SHADOWS, SHADOWS BY BLINDED SIGHT
THROWING SHADOWS, SHADOWS TO GRAY WHATS RIGHT
Verse2
THE LINE FOR THE WORLD IS NOT SO CLEARLY SEEN
BY THE LIGHT OF THE SON BEING BLOCKED BY THE HOUSE THEY SEE
OH YES EACH HOUSE WILL HAVE IT'S SPECIAL SHADE
EACH ONE DIFFERENT IN A DIFFERENT WAY
Chorus 1
Verse 3
THE LINE FOR THE WORLD IS NOT SO CLEARLY SEEN
BY THE LIGHT OF THE SON BEING BLOCKED BY WHAT WE TEACH
ONE HOUSE WILL TEACH WITHIN A CERTAIN SHADE
ANOTHER'S HOUSE WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT WAY
Chorus 2
WE ARE THROWING SHADOWS, SHADOWS ON HOLY LIGHT
THROWING SHADOWS, SHADOWS TO DIM THE LIGHT
THROWING SHADOWS, SHADOWS BY BLINDED SIGHT
THROWING SHADOWS, SHADOWS TO GRAY WHAT'S RIGHT
Repeat Chorus 2 For Ending
