[Verse 1]

Give me a place to stand

And I shall move the world

Deep down all men are mad

As the mist begins to swirl

[Pre-Chorus]

It was only a shadow

The shade around your neck

It was only a shadow

You cannot spare the wretched from the wreck

[Chorus]

Burning eyes

Fall below us in the night

Demon fire

Now we're cursing the moonlit sky

[Verse 2]

In daylight, I don't dream

At night, there's only grief

I pity all your bleeding hearts

But love you because they bleed

[Pre-Chorus]

I am only a shadow

The chain around your neck

I am only a shadow

A mystery to life and death

[Chorus]

Burning eyes

Fall below us in the night

Demon fire

Jagged lines

Of the tower looming high

Cursing the moonlit sky

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 3]

There's something in the wind

That sounds and looks and tastes like death

These spirits, unliving

I feel their breath or was it—

[Pre-Chorus]

Only a shadow

Who do I walk among?

Is it only a shadow?

So look upon a life gone wrong

Now what have I become?

[Chorus]

Burning eyes fall below us in the night

Demon fire

Jagged lines

Of the tower looming high

Cursing the moonlit sky

[Outro]

Souls arise

All around us ghostly white

Paralyzed

Stars align

Like a vampire looming high

Casting no shadow light
