Lyrics

Shadows and Light
Yves Stilmant © 2025

Verse 1
Footsteps in shadow trace my past,
I chase the light I left too fast.
Right and wrong wrestle in my chest,
I breathe and learn to speak what's best.
Pre-Chorus
Let the truth cut through the night--
I won't hide from wrong or right.
Chorus
Between shadows and light I stand,
Open heart, open hands.
I choose courage over spite,
I will walk from shadow to light.
Verse 2
The mirror shows a face I know,
A thousand reasons told me "no."
I wore my silence like a shield,
Till quiet cracked and love revealed.
I won't be led by fear again;
I step ahead and make amends.
Pre-Chorus
Let the truth cut through the night--
I won't hide from wrong or right.
Chorus
Between shadows and light I stand,
Open heart, open hands.
I choose courage over spite,
I will walk from shadow to light.
Bridge
Every scar becomes a signpost;
Every doubt becomes a door.
Final Chorus
Between shadows and light I stand,
Open heart, open hands.
I choose courage over spite,
I will walk from shadow to light.
