Living in the Shadows Lyrics

WORDS OF COMFORT COME AND GO
BUT THEY DON'T ALWAYS CURE
THE WORLD'S NOT ENDING SO THEY SAY
THESE DAYS YOU CAN'T BE SURE
STANDING ON THE OUTER EDGE
AND WATCHING FROM OUTSIDE
NO ONE HERE INVITED ME
AND NO ONE EVEN TRIED

LIVING IN THE SHADOWS
CANNOT REACH THE LIGHT
LIVING IN THE SHADOWS

ACTING LIKE YOU'RE FOOLING ME
BY DROWNING IN EXCESS
I KNOW THAT YOU AREN'T FREE
YOU'RE REALLY JUST A MESS
EVERYONE THAT PASSES ME
IS BORN WITHOUT A FACE
EMPTY EYES WITHOUT A MIND
THEIR SOULS HAVE BEEN ERASED

SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE WORLD TODAY
THE MINDS OF MAN HAVE TORN AND FRAYED
CHASING AROUND WHAT THEY CAN'T SEE
SOMETHING THEY COULD NEVER BE

IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED
YOU MUST TRY AGAIN
I'VE DONE ALL I EVER COULD
THE LOSER ALWAYS WINS
IT'S TIME TO STEP FROM THE DARK
I'M RATTLING YOUR CAGE
IMPRISONMENT YOU HAVE MADE
YOUR LIFE HAS ALL BEEN STAGED
