Dark Tranquillity
Shadow in Our Blood
[Verse 1]
We are delusional
To go against mortality
Still we fight, love and create
As the only creatures
In on life's great secret
We sense the pointlessness beyond

[Pre-Chorus 1]
There is a void between our hands
That drowns the sounds of life
An arrow lazed in liquid darkness
For every sun god's heart

[Chorus]
No! It has always been right here
Like a shadow in our blood
No! It waits for you and me
The shadow in our blood

[Verse 2]
We are delusional from fictional reality
To prayers of prosperity
Loneliness, can we resist your pale attraction?
Give in to the dream with open eyes
[Pre-Chorus 2]
How will this world within a world live on?
Another page torn from the book of strangers
Who says "I" when all the voices
Fear their own sound
And who remembers the hours

[Chorus]
No! It has always been right here
Like a shadow in our blood
No! It waits for you and me
The shadow in our blood

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Here in the barren and still
Far from the shores of real
Dreams born beyond borders
On weave of thought and want
Here we're invincible

[Chorus]
No! It has always been right here
Like a shadow in our blood
No! It waits for you and me
The shadow in our blood
