Shadow in the Rain

The grin was not a smile

The wolf was not your friend

The grip is not of love nor hate

It's got you on your knees

It's whispering in your head

It'll see to that you meet your end

Silent whispers, silent pleads

But no-one hears you cry

The beast inside you never sleeps

It'll never say goodbye

You can't remember

You can't regret

Just stand there mesmerized

You're just as good as dead

Become a shadow in the rain

Collect your prize, be swept away

You're crying for your loss

You're beyond taking the blame

Addiction's torn your soul away

Distorted eyes the broken mind

Howl at the moon in the sky

With shaking hands you dig your own grave

Hopeless prayers as you weep

Still no-one hears your cry

The beast inside you never sleeps

Just kiss the world goodbye

refrain:

You can't remember

You can't regret

Just stand there mesmerized

You're just as good as dead

Become a shadow in the rain

And as it falls you're washed away

refrain2:

You can't remember

You can't regret

Staring with empty eyes

Hear voices in your head

Become a shadow in the rain

That's what you are

Shadow in the rain

Hopeless prayers as you weep

Still no-one hears your cry

The beast inside you never sleeps

Just kiss the world goodbye
