Shine Lyrics - Edenbridge

The night is drawing on but all the strain not told on him 

And he won't fall into the sleep of the just 

To be a tumbler or a lonesome intruder 

He is as good as gold and searching for trust 

(Be) 

To be the harlequin who shines in dead gold 

To kill those idle thoughts about this stronghold 

(See) 

See the evening star in this sunset glow 

Sailing the splendor ships straight on, on the port bow 

Strike the sands of ever 

The lingering sound of dreams in harsh reality 

Turn over a new leaf 

Ardently desired and forever 

(Shine) 

It fired his imagination so far 

And he gave rise to hope 

(Shine) 

This true ring of conviction will leave a scar 

The dancer on a rope 

(Shine) 

Where's the difference between man and machine? 

And who will draw the line? 

(Shine) 

The game is worth the candle, always been 

May all the ways then shine 

Sometimes he's worlds apart and elsewhere lies his dream 

And he won't never shift the blame on you 

Sometimes a parting kiss speaks louder than action 

When life turns suddenly like a bolt from the blue 

He's not the silver slave supposed to be 

He's on the rise to fame, out of this tragedy 

Free, so now the odds are even, literally true 

There is no limit to it all, there is no taboo 

Strike the sands of ever 

The lingering sound of dreams in harsh reality 

Turn over a new leaf 

Ardently desired and forever 

(Shine) 

It fired his imagination so far 

And he gave rise to hope 

(Shine) 

This true ring of conviction will leave a scar 

The dancer on a rope 

(Shine) 

Where's the difference between man and machine? 

And who will draw the line? 

(Shine) 

The game is worth the candle, always been 

May all the ways then shine 

Don't clip those wings of the flying 

When wearing your heart on your sleeve 

But still there is life among dying 

The far cry off and make-believe 

In this palatial hallway, should all be null and void? 

Between the tricks of fortune, in years that he enjoyed 

He is the one enigma, high-flown, beneath the sun 

Is he the last resort when future has begun? 

(Shine) 

It fired his imagination so far 

And he gave rise to hope 

(Shine) 

This true ring of conviction will leave a scar 

The dancer on a rope 

(Shine) 

Where's the difference between man and machine? 

And who will draw the line? 

(Shine) 

The game is worth the candle, always been 

May all the ways then shine
