Shadows With Tales To Tell
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In my room burns a single flame
And night has come, so nothing looks the same
Shadows on the floor,shadows on the wall
So alive, you can almost hear them call
I start to sleep, but my eyes still see
I've taken the bait and now my mind has been set free
As the room starts to turn and figures start to twist
I'm drowning in blackness, in the sea of mist
Stand very still, be very silent
Shadows with tales to tell
Stand very still, be very silent
Singing of Heaven and Hell
Lying, sleeping, dreaming neon white
Angels and Demons coming out of the ligt
Shadows on the floor, whispering in my ear
Telin' me ancient truths of why we are here
Stand very still, be very silent
Shadows with tales to tell
Stand very still, be very silent
Singing of Heaven and Hell
The shadows are dancing tonight
By the power of one single light
Visions show me places that can never be
Terrible and beautiful, not for the eyes to see
Out of the twilight, silence is born
But I awake and now my dream is gone
Stand very still, be very silent
Darkness with tales to tell
Stand very still, be very silent
Singing of Heaven and Hell
Stand very still, be very silent
The shadows are dancing tonight
Stand very still, be very silent
By the power of the single light
[Mads,Lars]
