We Are Shadows
Sleep I don't need to sleep I hide my fears behind me Dream I don't sleep, I dream My conscience lays beside me If you were here If you were here, if I was there If you were here today, this day If you were here If you were here, if I was there If you were here today, this day Speak I don't need to speak You're satisfied with silence Scream I won't speak, I scream My conscience walked behind me If you were here If you were here, if I was there If you were here today, this day If you were here If you were here, if I was there If you were here today, this day Today Sleep And all my energy I waste on dreams of silence If you were here If you were here, if I was there If you were here today, this day If you were here If you were here, if I was there If you were here today, this day Today

Form a circle Join the line The spirits of the night Beat time Satan's fiddle Strikes the bow Start the dance Around they go Face to face with destiny Let their wildest dreams Run free Ecstasy fills their minds They're damned until The end of time Dance You're losing control Dance He's stealing your soul Dance With the Devil Dance You're losing control Dance He's stealing your soul Dance With the Devil Sold their souls Satan's slaves Now the Devil Must be paid The music holds them In it's spell They'll soon be dancing Now in Hell Dance You're losing control Dance He's stealing your soul Dance With the Devil Dance You're losing control Dance He's stealing your soul Dance With the Devil

Ever since I was eight or nine. I've been standing on the shoreline All my life I've been waiting for something lasting Oh this town kills you when you are young Oh this town it kills you when you are young. I'm not the boy that I used to be This town has got the youth of me All the eyes turn hollow From the work of sorrow You die young You die when you're young You die when you're young We are shadows Oh, we're shadows Just shadows in the alley Standing on the paving By the office building There's so much to do Never time for you You die young You die when you're young You die when you're young We are shadows Oh, we're shadows Just shadows in the alley I've got nothing Nothing to wait for Nothing to wait for Ooh Where is life in this town? Where is life in this town?
