And you call another baby
And you’re longer gonna take me
And I know you’re gonna hate me
And I know you’re gon fade me out
And you fuck off on me
So that I can not speak
And my dreams turn to demons
In the light of your sleep
And now I unfold
On my love you extol
And I know I won’t reach ya
And I know I need I just reaching

And my girl got away from me
And my girl got away from me
In the shadow of the shade I weep
For the love you never gave I preach
And my baby got of reach
And my baby got out of reach
And I lost my love and set her free
And I lost my love and set her free (baby)

And I know you kept me waiting
And I know that you're gon' hate me
But I know that you're gonna thank me
And I know that you're gonna hate me
But I know that you're gon' fade me
And I know you're gonna thank me (yeah)
And I know that you can harm me (harm me)
And I know that you can
It's what you are
It's what you do
I cannot take my eyes from you (baby)
It's what you are
It's what you do
I cannot breathe my life’s with you (baby)

All of my defenses
All of my disaster
All of my devotion
All of my deception
All of my passion
All of my madness
All of my tomorrow
All of my fuckin' sorrow

All of my freedom
All of my Jesus
All of my waiting
All of my addiction
All of my heartache
All of my caterwauling
All of my promise
All of my caterwauling (baby)

(In the shadow of the shade bitch
In the shadow of the shade ayy
In the shadow of the shade I'm elated
In the shadow of the shadow ahh!)
