Behind these shades
Eyes are a little blood shot
Sitting here with just my thoughts
Lord knows I’ve seen better days
Behind these shades
I don’t see the world as it is
I think there has to be more than this
Lord knows I need to escape
Behind these shades
I can live in my own little corner
I can be a remarkable performer
Lord knows I’ve done it for decades
Behind these shades
I wonder what it’s all about
No one hears me when I shout
Lord knows I need to change my ways
Behind these shades
I can hide my pain
I know I’m the one to blame
Lord knows the demons that raid
Behinds these shades
I can hide my tears
I can hide my fears
Lord knows all these things I hate
Behind these shades
I can smile and disguise
Happy with a pocketful of lies
Lord knows I need His aid
Behind these shades
The battle rages
Turning pages
Lord, He patiently waits
Behind these shades
Across this great divide
I can never hide
From God whose love never fades
Behind these shades
A light starts to shine
A light so bright it blinds
Lord knows nothing separates
I take off these shades
My mind blocks out the fiction
I can remember the crucifixion
All the lies evaporate
