Shades Lyrics - Singles - Rishloo

We're, if at all 

Slaves to a pawn 

Caught in a cautious lie, if at all 

Staggering weightless 

Haggard stained cynical 

It all tastes sweet 

Leave me to sway here, if at all 

Listing ageless 

Wait, wait and see 

Come here to rest 

And then cosset the crows 

Who murder the raven 

And those who cast the losing die 

Leave me to sway here, if at all 

Listing ageless 

Wait 

Trace these suicide shades 

Uncovered through this pious lullaby 

Praise to suffer 

While we brace ourselves 

Shaking hands on the alter 

See these paths to their end 

Through the pulse of hate 

And now walk along the earth 

It always turns inward 

To let their souls writhe 

Silting softly it is wanting hate 

Trace these suicide shades 

Uncovered through this pious lullaby 

Pray and suffer 

Erase, erase, erase, erase 

Erase, erase, erase, erase 

In the deep, dark shadows where everyone lies 

There's a circus smirking debutante conducting his spies 

And now he's turned you in, to their chagrin, and now everyone dies 

In his deep, dark shadows where everyone lies 

Shades, shades 

Now he stands in the center with his Cheshire grin 

Peeling off oscillating memories attached to their skin 

But it's over soon, now red balloons keep us amputees in 

In his deep, dark circus where nobody wins 

Shades, shades
