Nothing But a Shadow Lyrics

Trust in me and I will set your heart afire

In time, in time

Touch me with your soothing hand, my desire

In time, in time

Your voice an angel choir, hypnotized, I close my eyes

In time, I will find my way

My glass heart I give to you, shatter me within this shell

In time, I will find my way

Carve your name into my skin; mix your tears into my blood

I hear the cries above calling down for me

I lift myself up to my feet; the strength I’ve gained will be your fall

In time, I will have my way



You won’t believe my suffering was all for you

In time, in time

I have shed my blood, my life, in your name

In time, in time

Beauty lay with fallen gods; silent prayers fall on deaf ears

In time, I will find my way

Distant cries of agony, I lay you down upon your bed

In time, I will find my way

Penetrate your shallow hear, the love I felt I cannot find

I hear the cries above calling down for me

Broken dreams of ecstasy, awake to hear your frightened screams

In time, I will have my way



I don’t need you

Here I stand, I am the only one

I release you

Here I am, kneeling before you



I am nothing but a shadow in your eyes



Hold my heart over an open flame

I don’t mind if I never see the light again

Here I am
