Black Shadows

So you cry yourself to sleep

In places no one sees you weep,

Who can wipe those tears away?

To the silent stars you pray,

Painful secrets underneath,

Ones you fight so hard to keep,

When your senses feel betrayed

Your shell lies open once again,

Love is blind today

But innocence will find a way

To turn the darkness of this plight

Into light,

Until the black shadows die

Upon the cross of broken love,

Until the black shadows blind

These indifferent eyes,

Black shadows hide

Until the rose has opened up,

Then one by one with each sunrise

The black shadows die

You could be miles away from me,

It's you private fantasy,

So much harder to pretend

When this nightmare never ends,

Trust in me, I'll light the way,

Turn this twilight into day,

Don't look back, look straight ahead,

I will guide your every step,

The lover's fire remains

But pretty soon it dies away,

So I'll do all I can to fight,

From tonight...

Until the black shadows die

Upon the cross of broken love,

Until the black shadows blind

These indifferent eyes,

Black shadows hide

Until the rose has opened up,

Then one by one with each sunrise

The black shadows die
