lyrics

shade the sun
I'm casting shadows
feel it burn
the light, it scatters

shield my eyes
you're casting shadows
leave me unscathed
leave me in tatters

you're so cold
I'll leave you in the dark

so crooked in your ways
so hideous in your mistakes
oh so radiant when
no one's eyes were watching

there's no hope here
there's no hope here

so spiteful in the way you say
in time, in time it goes away
so daunting in your mood of black
turn red, turn pink but never turn back

and I sit here watching
and I sit here waiting
waiting for a miracle to come

there's no hope here
there's no hope here

shade the sun
I'm casting shadows
feel it burn
the light, it scatters

shield my eyes
you're casting shadows
leave me unscathed
leave me in tatters

you're so cold
I'll leave you in the dark

I'll leave you in the dark
