Walking Shadows Lyrics - Sikth

[Verse 1] 

I told myself to go 

Under ten feet of snow 

I couldn't wipe the smile off my face 

Under tainted light I did embrace 

A medicated mind 

Never knew what it could find 

But when one day the colour turned to grey 

Couldn't feel a thing and on my own again 

These eyes staring back at me 

Darker than I've ever seen 

[Chorus] 

So far away from home 

Every place I go 

So far away from home 

Everywhere I know 

A thick fog which I can't see through 

A thick fog which I can't see through 

[Verse 2] 

Where be thou destiny? 

Lost in a state of sleep? 

Tried to fly away so I could think 

Ever since I proceeded to sink 

Onto an empty road 

Every step more alone 

I lay awake another night to scream and say 

(I) can't believe it's all turned out this way 

Now all I see are shades, shades of grey 

[Chorus] 

So far away from home 

Every place I go 

So far away from home 

Everywhere I know 

These eyes staring back at me 

Darker than I've ever seen 

A new cityscape, new faces I find 

I covert this new light to shine 

You found me so soon 

Melancholy moon, I wish you would just go away 

Go away! Go away! 

Sleep. Go to sleep 

Just say goodbye 

Oh how are we feeling now? 

What about that black cloud that keeps following ya? 

Don't you think it would be more fun 

In a world of bubble gum? 

Welcome to the maze, the mist and the haze 

It's gotten so misty in here, it's hard to see properly 

Welcome to the maze, the mist and the haze 

This world just keeps getting darker 

Darker by the day, and all I see 

Don't even think, don't even try and think! 

Come on, come on! We gotta fly away, fly away! 

I don't know where we're going just get on the fucking plane! 

Where be the colours I knew? 

Where be the flowers I used to know, where so? 

When it looks like it's over 

And hope is just a word 

You may walk in limbo into the snow 

You may feel like a shadow, like nobody is home 

When you walk in shadows 

Under the snow 

Under the snow 

Under the snow 

Under the snow
