Just A Shadow Lyrics - House Of God - King Diamond

Again I'm so alone, the wine is pouring down 

No one to share with, no one to care with 

The only light in my life 

Comes from the candlelight, black candles left behind 

As I'm sitting through the night 

I'm so cold and dark inside 

Angel, your memory will haunt me till the day I die 

Just a shadow, a shadow of a man 

I'm just a shadow, a shadow of a man 

The eyes of statues standing along the nave 

They seem to follow my every move, every tear I shed 

I am no longer living, but I am still not dead 

I'm somewhere in between, I am of the unseen 

Must we have the other side, just to feel alive? 

Oh I wonder what would be had we not created me 

Just a shadow, a shadow of a man 

I'm just a shadow, a shadow of a man 

The eyes of statues standing along the nave 

They seem to follow my every move 

They drive me insane 

Surrounded by darkness in this cold church of thine 

I try to remember, all that once was mine 

I don't know what tomorrow will bring 

But if life is so divine, how come I suffer so in mine? 

How come I suffer in mine? 

The eyes of statues standing along the nave 

They seem to follow my every move 

They drive me insane 

I am no longer of the living, but I am still not dead 

I'm somewhere in between, I am of the unseen 

I lived a lifetime of sorrow and hate, up until the other day 

That's when I left this sick old world behind 

Oh how love can make you blind
