Out Of The Shadows Lyrics - Touch - Sarah Mclachlan

Crouching down inside a deep ravine 

Those angry cries pass quickly by, he can't be seen 

So many ways spent hiding in so many undone plans 

Forgetting what it's like to fight when no one understands 

Close call there in the shadows 

There's a fear in the dark 

There's one out there 

All those memories, pain and anger, flood back one by one 

They must be just around the bend, they always come 

At night as I lay sleeping they come to me in herds 

Their lies remain, the dreams the same, it's only fleeting words 

No one calls there in the shadows 

There's no end to the dark 

But there's one out there, no one but me 

The hours pass so slowly, the life's slipping out of me 

No way's the right way. 

Is there a way out for me? 

My life's slipping out 

Rising up, the night is done, and now the bright lights come 

Held back in my pitied world where everything's undone 

A cold wind blows right through me, I'm made a hollow shell 

There's nothing left, just ash remains, enrich the soil, no soil, no soil 

Close call there in the shadows 

There's an end to the dark 

'Cause there's someone out there 

Someone like me 

The hours pass so slowly, the life's slipping out of me 

No way's the right way, is there a way out for me 

The hours pass so slowly 

The life's slipping out of me 

Is there a way out for me? 

The hours pass so slowly 

The life's slipping out of me 

Is there a way out for me? 

There must be a way out for me
