Shadow Lyrics
One foot in the ground
One foot in the grave
Don’t you dare make a sound, shh
Hear you from a mile away
�
Run from the town
All you need is your name
And the sweat on your brow
And the blood running through your veins
pre-chorus
Don’t think twice
You’ll be dead in a second
Turn your eyes
From your hands to the heavens
Kill your pride
Turn your fear to a weapon
And don’t you forget it
�
Oh, oh-oh, don’t you let ’em take control
And don’t you let ’em break your soul
It’s not the devil at your door
It’s just your shadow on your floor
�
Whoa-oh-whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh
�
One eye on the clock
One eye on the mirror
Take a step through your thoughts
Is it getting clearer?
If they follow you whenever night falls
Will you still listen to my call
Who do you trust to knowing it all?
Or knowing it all?
pre-chorus
Don’t think twice
You’ll be dead in a second
Turn your eyes
From your hands to the heavens
Kill your pride
Turn your fear to a weapon
And don’t you forget it
�
Oh, oh-oh, don’t you let ’em take control
And don’t you let ’em break your soul
It’s not the devil at your door
It’s just your shadow on your floor
�
Whoa-oh-whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh
�
Tell me that you hate me
Yeah, I heard it all before
There is a life here for the taking
Is it mine or is it yours?
All I am is what you make me
You’re on both sides of the war
It’s not the devil that you’re facing
It’s just your shadow on the floor
�
Whoa-oh-whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh
�
It’s just your shadow on the floor
