Children of Bodom
In the Shadows
[Verse 1]
I cannot get up by the howling cry
Just justify my longing to die
Bury me down at last
I think about it in the shadows and cry

[Verse 2]
Can scissors heal a man torn of tears
A fading I fear inside
The reaper in sheet will stand by me
I'm dreaming, I'm wearing a black dress that night

[Verse 3]
I'm just a being tonight
And still I'm dressed so black... OH YEAH!
Maybe I'm just blind
Maybe I should try...

Can't you see why the vision is calling you?

[Verse 4]
I got the one, the dream of horror
Dreams of blood, dreams of war
Rudest eyes have seen the fright
Welcome to the eternal night
[Verse 5]
You won't be a butcher
No, you won't be at last
Somebody's the trigger
Take it off!
What, you are the priest's son? Fuck
SO FUCK YOURSELF AND DIE!

[Verse 6]
Sill I stand against the death
Am I just a shade?
Always I'm awake and in black
Sill I dare to praise the Lord
No I won't pass to the lord
Goodbye - no...

[Chorus]
So the keeper waits upon
He waits upon a border
Let me own your punishment
It's time to break the border
The Candlelight fades away
There's nothing at all but me...

[Post-Chorus]
I stare at death and the darkest one's
Watching me with cold eyes
A god has been with me in the shadows
I lost my reason to hate!
[Bridge]
(So it's right...)
(I can leave the shadows!)
(The last one has to survive!)

Oh right!

[Verse 7]
With my light shining bright
I got my way
To regret
With my last dying rhyme I got my world
To betray for what I did by my motherfucking heart!

[Outro]
The shadows draw back into honesty and love
Obey, and it will cut your throat
I can't speak and you shant be the next
The shadows strike in your blame
