lyrics

i know i have shadows in my head
i know, i know, i'll wake the dead
how has is been in the boo-hoo scene?
is everyone there still seventeen?
i know they got shadows in their heads,
cause all of them dreaming about being dead.

o, my lord.

i have shadows
i'm darkness's newly-wed
i have a feeling all is well
deep inside, but i can't tell
i know there are shadows in my head
i know, i know, i'll wake the dead

o, my lord

yes, the lord will keep me warm from here
from deep inside the fire that tore the tear
'cause if tears aren't bad then prayer's good
it's always nicer to feel understood.

what's with the shadows in my head
what are they, and why are they there?
what's it feel like to see the light,
and will it ever fill my life?

o, my lord.
