Shadows Lyrics - Singles - The Relapse Symphony

i didn't see the darkness as it came 

rushing like a rainfall over me 

one second there was sun the next there was none 

i didn't feel the pressure on my back 

like a vampire breathing down my neck 

chasing me away from you and everything i ever loved 

i never meant to let you down 

but i'll never let them take me now 

the dream is dust the deed is done 

and i've got my hands around the gun 

i never meant to play this part 

i never meant to break your heart 

but here in the shadows we decide 

either we're dead or we survive 

i think you're getting close to seeing now 

it's you and me against everybody else 

and i don't want to doubt that you won't make a sound 

and i could pretend i was sorry yeah 

and i could pretend that it hurts so bad 

but everything i do i do it all again 

i never meant to let you down 

but i'll never let them take me now 

the dream is dust the deed is done 

and i've got my hands around the gun 

i never meant to play this part 

i never meant to break your heart 

but here in the shadows we decide 

either we're dead or we survive 

i've got a darkness deep inside 

but here in the shadows i'm alive 

so if you're looking for me just look straight down 

it's here in the shadows i'll be found 

i never meant to let you down 

but i'll never let them take me now 

here in the shadows we decide 

either were dead or we survive 

i never meant to let you down 

but i'll never let them take me now 

the dream is dust the deed is done 

and i've got my hands around the gun 

i never meant to play this part 

i never meant to break your heart 

but here in the shadows we decide 

either we're dead or we survive
