Shadow's Edge
(whispered) The edge of the shadow approaches by night // The edge of the shadow eclipses the light There's no place to run, and there's no place to hide For the edge of the shadow is lurking outside (Do you feel it), chills run up your spine. (As it sneaks up), fear clouds your mind (It surrounds you), you don't want to know (As you tremble), it searches your soul The dark of the shadow, cuts to the bone The dark of the shadow is colder than stone There's no place for comfort, there's no time to rest The dark of the shadow is your final test The edge of the shadow approaches by night The edge of the shadow eclipses the light There's no place to run, and there's no place to hide The edge of the shadow will soon be inside (Can you fight it), creeping beneath your skin (As you struggle), the battle begins (Are you helpless), will it tear you apart ? Another victim, engulfing your mind and heart The gloom of the shadow confuses your sight The gloom of the shadow, fills you with fright There's no place for solace, your soul starts to grieve For the gloom of the shadow, will never leave The edge of the shadow approaches by night The edge of the shadow eclipses the light There's no place to run, and there's no place to hide The edge of the shadow is lurking inside Do you feel it, chills run up your spine. As it sneaks up, despair swallows your mind Is it right there, you don't want to know Caught you off guard, it's secrets clamor your soul The haunt of the shadow can never be traced The haunt of the shadow, lives for the chase There's no place to sleep, and there's no place that's safe The haunt of the shadow strikes everyplace The edge of the shadow approaches by night The edge of the shadow eclipses the light There's no place to run, and there's no place to hide The edge of the shadow is deep down inside Can you fight it, creeping beneath your skin. As you battle, the struggle only begins You are helpless, as it tears you apart Now a victim, it's home is safe in your heart The edge of the shadow, cuts like a knife The edge of the shadow eclipses your life There's no place to run, and there's no place to hide The edge of the shadow is only inside |
