lyrics

WALKING SHADOWS

Here we stand just sons and daughters
Run amok, lives in disorder
Tell ourselves we’re the only ones
Living life like a dying sun

No one can tell you to make a stand
Or when to take the offered hand
Your decision until your last breath
A devil in life or an angel of death

PRE: Say that you are not afraid
Of consequences of plans you’ve laid
Cannot wash your red hands clean
Covered ears won’t stop the screams

CH: Will you go through life, another walking shadow
Full of sound and fury with no substance to behold
The fates may smile now, but will they smile forever
Or bare their teeth in hunger as they wait to eat your soul

Sold out for the lowest price
Ignorance your only vice
Not so far that a leap of faith
Won’t leave you lying flat on your face

It’s your choice not to make the grade
All the judges have been paid
That tired voice inside your head
Will drone on and on until you're dead

PRE: Can't take back promises you break
Jump to conclusions you're forced to make
Turn loose who you really are
Bottle it up, spite in a jar

CH: Will you go through life another walking shadow
Finding neither truth, nor glory along the way
Without the guts to lead or humility to follow
History will erase your name from the minds of future days

You’re just a walking shadow
Can you tell me where you’ll be tomorrow
It’s time you knew that
You’re just another walking shadow

Just an echo of your former self
Doomed yourself to a life of hell
You’re just a walking shadow (x3)
Can you tell me where you’ll be tomorrow
It’s time you knew that
You’re just another walking shadow
You’re just another walking shadow
