"Shadowminds" lyrics - THE HALO EFFECT

One side of this watershed moment
Left the fair and true objective far behind
For fear of facing what rationale resigns to
The thought of you alone with demons on your mind

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ravaging the nerves
Overtaking consciousness
What was said and what was done
Now haunt the witching hour

[Chorus:]
Let the now begin today
To the past a swift farewell
Innocence is nothing
When shadowminds prevail
Let the fear be gone today
To oblivion we cast it down
When shadowminds prevail

Let go of this, the embers of the day
Bring not the fire to the combustible night
Rather have the anger extinguish the flames
Than numbing chemicals to keep it at bay

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ravaging the nerves
Overtaking consciousness
What was said and what was done
Now haunt the witching hour

[Chorus:]
Let the now begin today
To the past a swift farewell
Innocence is nothing
When shadowminds prevail
Let the fear be gone today
To oblivion we cast it down
When shadowminds prevail

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus:]
Let the now begin today
To the past a swift farewell
Innocence is nothing
When shadowminds prevail
Let the fear be gone today
To oblivion we cast it down
When shadowminds prevail

[Outro:]
Let the now begin
To oblivion we cast you down
Innocence is nothing
Don't let shadowminds prevail
