Living In Your Shadow

There you go
Now you?re gone
I can?t help
Can?t help you

Because you will
Will soon die
And there?s nothing I
I can do

Your demise
Shall not bring
Blood to the skies
Nor death or decay
No not now
Not this very day

We can?t help
Help you stay
Stay here, on your way

Your soul is hollow
And you are
Living in your shadow
Which is why
We can?t save you now

The misery in your life
Is your own
The hate you have
Runs through your bones

The blood in your eyes
Is caused by the fires
Fires in your heart
The heart which your love tore apart

I wish you all the best
For I know
The pain you?re going through

I hope you survive
For I also know
That you won?t
Because you?re living in your shadow?
