Darkwave meets Duran Duran & Social Justice

Who would have thought a goth band with freakish hairdos would create a song with such empowering sentiments. Other than a slightly ungrammatical use of the preposition 'to', the lyrics are pretty good. (Yes, I know, you can take the English teacher out of the classroom, but...)


Listen here. It's catchy. (It will automatically play another song. just hit the stop button and then click on Sophia)


Sophia
by The Cruxshadows

When life is left behind this isolation
Cruelty and hatred have become
The cause of those whose eyes are full of wanting
The truth will still abandon none

So you must carry this light into the darkness
You shall be a star unto the night
You will find hope alive among the hopeless
That is your purpose to this life

The lips draw words and hands find actions
Still there is more within one heart
Into the silence will you answer
Before the chaos will you come

Do not injustice to another
Defend the weak and innocent
Let truth and honor always guide you
Let courage find the light within

Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in hatred or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life

Here I am
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here I am
Thy will be done
Santa Sophia (Here I am)
Pieces borne to your victory
Athena Sophia (Here I am)
Thy will be done (How can I hope to live)
What I cannot dream

You cannot map the ways of divinity
This much is known only unto God

And through these doubts and through your confusion
Know that you are chosen to this fight
Look to find a soul filled with compassion
Look to see a living source of light

Do not injustice to another
Defend the weak and innocent
Let truth and honor always guide you
Let courage find the light within

Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in hatred or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life

Here I am
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here I am
Thy will be done
Santa Sophia (Here I am)
Pieces borne to your victory
Athena Sophia (Here I am)
Thy will be done (How can I hope to be)
What I can't believe

Do not injustice to another
Defend the weak and innocent
Let truth and honor always guide you
Let courage find the light within

Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in hatred or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life

Here I am
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here I am
Thy will be done
Santa Sophia (Here I am)
Pieces borne to your victory
Athena Sophia (Here I am)
Thy will be done (How can I hope to find)
What I cannot see

Here I am
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here I am
Thy will be done
Santa Sophia (Here I am)
Pieces borne to your victory
Athena Sophia (Here I am)
Thy will be done (How can I hope to be)
What's inside of me.
