Racing Shadows - Lyrics by Eloy


Lyrics
There's nowhere left to hidefrom the fatman and all his liesa TV puppet-politician
He thinks his words so finegreat, important, and divinea 2
0th century magicianin reality he's nothing but a shark
He appears to be a shadow in the dark
He's making rules and lawsto satisfy his greed paws
He's got this art down to perfection
Ideals improvisedwhat's good for him is legalisedfor he's the leader of the nationbut a dog that biteswill seldom ever barkall his slogans fade to nothingnessfor he is but a shadow in the darknessevery step they takeevery move they makeeverything is fakejust an illusionmadmen rise and fallmany heads may rollbut they don't care at alland sow confusion
Their perverted schemesare reaching their peakinsanity reigns
Simple parasitesthey feed off the weakposessing their brainsundercover of the titles they holdthat makes them so boldanother blindman trips and fallsand deaf men cannot hear at allthey smile towardstheir self destructionyes-men nod and bow their headscould own their own minds but insteadthey're just like puppets of corruptionand they play their game while corpsespave their wayand they'll force a smileuntil the day the racing shadowsfinally fade awaythere's a fire burning in our heartsit throws a light upon their dubious talklet the fire burnto disclise all their lieslet them play their gamesbut be true to yourselfand the flames will rageuntil the daythe racing shadows finally fade away
