R: But the shadows are on your side
as soon as the lights go down
In the darkest place you can find
you be long to the hands of the night
1. Promises made with a distant friend
Truth should be known it can only bend
to a tune of it's own, hey, you'll never hear
that voice again Scandal in white
on a tangled vine with everybody to say
that you're having the time of your life
when your life is on the slide
R: But the shadows...
2. Spinning a compass to choose your way
You can run, you can dive, you can stand and you can soar
whichever way you can be sure
R: But the shadows...
