[Verse] Shadow on the skin they wait and bow Whispers rise but they don’t know how Fingers trace the lines of time Every crack a quiet crime [Prechorus] Do they see me do they care Or just a ghost that's hanging there [Chorus] Shadow on the skin shadow on the skin Where the dark begins the dark begins They wait they bow they breathe somehow Shadow on the skin shadow on the skin The gentle hearts they feel their own weights Lingering their dreams and memories As twice as high [Verse 2] Midnight hum it calls me near Feet don’t move but I feel the fear Eyes like lanterns burn so wide Lost between the pull and pride [Bridge] They bow they bow they bow again To shadows carved by borrowed sin Is this the start or is it the end The line is blurred it will not bend [Chorus] Shadow on the skin shadow on the skin Where the dark begins the dark begins They wait they bow they breathe somehow Shadow on the skin shadow on the skin
