In The Shadows

Inspired by Iron Maiden's Shadows Of The Valley You ask a question They tell you lies, or nothing at all Contempt they disguise Shadows on the rise, as you fall Learning to live with the ego Whilst you live your life Dance to music only they know Got the moves on your strife Where is the view Of what is true The liar and the cheat Allowed to compete Ask who pays, and it's you Will they answer a question You get tired of the evade You pick any destination As your trust begins to fade The shadows are growing You begin to see the sorrow As they borrow the knowing From your sounds of tomorrow Where is the view Of what is true The liar and the cheat Allowed to compete Ask who pays, and it's you So in the shadows we must remain As they keep growing the pain Teaching young to know How to live life, in shadows of the ego In the shadows The liar and the cheat In the shadows Allowed to compete In the shadows Teaching sounds of tomorrow In the shadows Living in sorrow In the shadows Is there light to share Oh no, all must live, somewhere In the shadows
