Walking Shadows

Lyrics

I told myself to go

Under ten feet of snow

I couldn't wipe the smile off my face

Under tainted light I did embrace

A medicated mind

Never knew what it could find

But when one day the colour turned to grey

Couldn't feel a thing and on my own again

These eyes staring back at me, darker than I've ever seen

So far away from home,

Every place I go

So far away from home

Everywhere I know

A thick fog which I can't see through

Where be thou destiny?

Lost in a state of sleep?

Tried to fly away so I could think

Ever since I proceeded to sink

Onto an empty road

Every step more alone

I lay awake another night to scream and say

(I) can't believe it's all turned out this way

Now all I see are shades, shades of grey

So far away from home. Every place I go

So far away from home

Everywhere I know

These eyes staring back at me, darker than I've ever seen

A new cityscape, new faces I find

I covert this new light to shine

You found me so soon

Melancholy moon, I wish you would just go away

Go away! Go away!

Sleep. Go to sleep. Go to sleep now

Oh how are we feeling now?

What about that black cloud that keeps following ya?

Don't you think it would be more fun in a world of bubble gum?

Welcome to the maze, the mist and the haze

(It's gotten so misty in here,

it's hard to see properly

Welcome to the maze, the mist and the haze)

This world just keeps getting darker,

Darker by the day, and all I see

Don't even think, Don't even try and think!

Come on, come on! We gotta fly away, fly away!

I don't know where were going just get on the fucking plane!

Where be the colours I knew?

Where be the flowers I used to know, where so?

When it looks like it's over

And hope is just a word

You may walk in limbo into the snow

You may feel like a shadow, like nobody is home

When you walk in shadows

Under the snow, under the snow
