In the Shadows

We both take the hardest punches

And collect black eyes just to prove it

Still we pass by just like strangers

And we speak just like the closest enemies

In the night

Whoa-oh, in the shadows of our life

We can fall into the night unscarred

Whoa-oh, in the shadows of our life

We can never let it go this far

Somehow my word's rendered useless

Still I'll pull my lip down to my chest

Just to show you how my jaw is tired from waiting to say

The things that you should hear

You should hear

Whoa-oh, in the shadows of our life

We can fall into the night unscarred

Whoa-oh, in the shadows of our life

We can never let it go this far

After all, we're still the same

These empty promises seem to never change

There's a smile on my face and it's 2:55 a.m.

And this cramp in my wrist puts me back asleep 'til it all comes around again

With a closed fist

With a closed fist

With a closed fist

With a closed fist

Whoa-oh, in the shadows of our life

We can fall into the night unscarred

Whoa-oh, in the shadows of our life

We can never let it go this far

Whoa-oh, in the shadows of our life

We can fall into the night unscarred
