[Intro]

[Kier Kemp:]

Just one taste a night, is never enough to appease me

'Cause I’m losing the fight

Oh honey, you know it ain’t easy, to hide all my scars

You know I don’t want to scare you, 'cause I’m falling apart

And I couldn’t stop it if I wanted to

[Verse 1]

The moonlight excites me, as the dancing masses begin to twirl

No, my heart isn’t free!

But it beats in time with the underworld!

I’ve made up my mind, I’m not gonna wait 'til they cast the stone!

I’ve left my old life behind, so that the broken hearts don’t have to feel alone

So I’ll drain my body of everything..

If it pleases you, like I want it to, woah-oh-oh!

[Pre-Chorus]

So take a breath, turn out the lights..

We’ll rise again, and sing, for all the-

[Chorus]

Wasted shadows of the light!

This city’s calling out tonight!

It calls, for sacrifice!

Well, I’ve paid my price!

With all the vows I’ve broken, and friendships I’ve forsaken

Just for you..

[Verse 2]

My armour’s in pieces, but I’ll bare my soul when you say the word

'Cause all you hungry creatures lick my open wounds..

I’ll take any drug just to keep me moving

And I’ll break every bone in my body to prove

Oh, but it’s never enough!

No, it’s never enough!

Now it’s taking control!

I’ll drain, my body of everything

If it pleases you.. I would die for you

[Chorus]

Wasted shadows of the light!

This city’s calling out tonight!

For pain and pleasure intertwined

And not, some heartless hollow of the mind!

[Bridge]

So we’ll rise on, like the morning sun

And bare our souls, for everyone to see:

We are, prisoners of you..

You, you, too..

[EP Version:] Oo, oo, oo..

[Instrumental]

[EP: Version:] Oh.. oh..

Ah!!

[Cyrus Barrone:] Feels like a dream

Flowing in and out of control, oh!

[Chorus]

[All:] Wasted shadows of the light!

This city’s calling out tonight!

For pain and pleasure intertwined

And not, some heartless hollow of the mind!

[Outro]

[Kier:] Forget, your pain (your pain!)

Ignore, the sane!

It’s clear.. we are, prisoners of you!
