Shadows and Strings

[Intro] [Verse 1] The stage lights hummed in Mistmere heat Lutes 'n' Roses brought you to my feet That tiger fur, that long black tie You caught my soul with a golden eye I was an officer, bound by the law But I gave it all to a reach of your claw We exchanged our hearts in ink and page Before you turned into a different cage [Chorus] And I'm fallin', ~ yeah, I'm fallin'~ Between the bard I love and the beast you become I'm hearin' your melody, I'm hearin' you callin' But the silence of your shadow leaves me numb Oh, Cat, tell me how it got this way How you sing like an angel, then turn to the grey? [Verse 2] You were the passion, the fire, the drive The only one who made me feel alive But Eastwater bled under a different moon You wanted blood, and you wanted it soon I stood for the innocent, I stood for the light You turned your back, said you couldn't be tamed Walked out on me, and left me ashamed Now I'm walkin' these halls, just a ghost of a mate Still holdin' the letters that decided our fate [Bridge] I know the road is your only home I know you're wild, I know you roam But there's a fever in you, a cold, dark spark And I'm the only one who can guide you through the dark I'm still yours, even when you're not there Is it a curse, or just a prayer? [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] 'Cause I'm fallin', ~ yeah, I'm fallin'~ Between the bard I love and the beast you become I'm hearin' your melody, I'm hearin' you callin' But the silence of your shadow leaves me numb Oh, Cat, tell me how it got this way How you sing like an angel, then turn to the grey? [Outro] My jet black fur, your tiger stripe We were the friction, we were the hype I'm still waitin' by the Mistmere gate Is it too late? Are you sick, my love? Just come back to the light... I'm still fallin'
