There's Shadows

There's Shadows lurking in the corners

Waiting for the night

I walk through this land of mirrors

The backwards staring back at me

My ancestors got it wrong

They're watching, willing for my fall

I flick my thumbnail from my tooth

They'll be waiting for eternity

I know something they don't know

I see things that they can't see

There's Shadows lurking in the corners

Waiting for my fall

There's Shadows

There's Ogres, Demons wearing suits

Rife with ill-intent

They hawk their black technology

They'll trade you for your skin

Walk in their land of mirrors

And know not what you see

I flick my thumbnail from my tooth

Black magic doesn't work on me

I've lived lives in many forms

I've been behind the shrouded veil

There's Shadows lurking in the corners

Praying I don't tell

There's Shadows

I'm an old and ancient soul

I'm The Tired Clown

Illusions fall beneath my feet

I scuff 'em to the kerb

I stare those Demons down

They think I'll take 'em seriously

They see my brow begin to dance

I laugh 'em to obscurity

Pass through this land of mirrors

And hurl your rocks of joy

There's Shadows lurking in the corners

And they should be afraid of me
