Lyrics
Shadows
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.
When the darkeness eats away the
Day
And the moon bears witness to the
Graves
In the shadows we are alive
In the shadows, the light
Can you see the ghosts above our
Heads?
We are all in the there with the dead
In the shadows we are alive
In the shadows, in the light
In the darkness there is no holding
Back
There is no gold in black
Deep in the night
Everything is clear
Clear than daylight
In the land of mystery we share
You can come along if you dare
In the shadows we are alive
In the shadows, in the light
We are hiding in the shaodws on
Your wall
We are watching as you kiss your
Little doll
When the darkness leabes the night
We cannot see the light no more
No more
We always in the shadows by
Your door
But when the darkness leaves the night
We cannot see the light no more
There is no holding back
There is no gold black
Deep in the night
Clearer than daylight
