about

Shadows Obey is a song that is actually about insomnia. Not being able to sleep no matter how tired you are is really frustrating and makes it hard for you to function during the day. The sound of rain and storm is soothing and can sometimes help you fall asleep.

lyrics

It's five in the morning, I'm lying awake
You're sound asleep beside me in the bed
I want to wake you, I want you to sleep
The sun's shining in and I just want to

Howl like the wind, twirl like the storm
I hear the rain beginning to pour
It's making you stir, but I feel at ease
A calmness that's making me fall asleep

We're standing together just watching the rain
The drops on the window wash darkness away
You don't need to ask me, we don't need to talk
A comforting silence brings light to the

Dark and the grey, shadows obey
Somehow I know I'll soon be okay
'cause after the clouds, storm and the rain
It's easier to enjoy sunny days

It's eight in the morning, still lying awake
You're sound asleep beside me in the bed
I want to wake you, I want you to sleep
The sun's shining in and I just want to

Howl like the wind, twirl like the storm
I hear the rain beginning to pour
It's making you stir, but I feel at ease
A calmness that's making me fall asleep
