Shades Of Separation - Lions Lions

Stay out of the shadows

I hope you know, this heart can’t take it anymore

Stay out of the shadows

You just might find this world has a cold dark touch

I watch you fade away

To a place where lives are lost

Season after season this mask regenerates

To cover the abrasions your body has sustained

We carried you for too long

Now this back is about to break

I wish these arms were stronger

But I can’t bear the weight

7 years and counting

We lived this masquerade

But now the party is over

They are all out of your champagne

These silhouettes are moving in and out

Like headhunters, you dug yourself a grave

It’s just too hard to watch you fall apart

I used to think this could all work out

Give me faith

Show me some kind of sign

So I know you’re still alive

Give me faith

Show me some kind of sign

So I know that you can hear me behind those diamond eyes!

We carried you for too long

Now this back is about to break

I wish these arms were stronger

But I can’t bear the weight

7 years and counting

We lived this masquerade

But now the party is over

They are all out of your champagne

These silhouettes are moving in and out

Like headhunters, you dug yourself a grave

It’s just too hard to watch you fall apart

I used to think this could all work out

Stay out of the shadows

I hope you know, this heart can’t take it anymore

Stay out of the shadows

You just might find this world has a cold dark touch
