Keep the Shadow in Mind

Crack the Red Sea open
And watch the blood run free
When the night finds you there 
You'll find new eyes to see 

With the peaks come the vales 
The dark holds up the holy light 
The two sided mirror dropped
Will break both black and white 

What will come of broken shards 
That fall sharply at your feet 
They will crumble naked to the floor
Where light and dark can meet

When you see past the mirror 
That's held you locked in tight 
A dual sight will reveal 
The truth you've long denied 

In the sweetest of surrenders
The fire burns ever bright 
So keep the shadow in mind
Even when it's out of sight

When You Remember Your Name

remember the day
I put away childish things 
It was a sobering dance
When I cut off all the strings

And as I lost my grip 
The grips, well, they lost me
I found my way back home 
To that river soft and free

Cuz the weaknesses will come
But they drift off just the same 
When you remember your name 
When you remember your name 

We don't have to be bold 
But we can never be afraid 
Cuz it's all just the same 
When we remember our name
