Okay, my first REAL lyrics. I mean, ones that I've actually kinda sung in
my head. Hey Shimagami, remember our band? Well, here's the first song.
Dedicated to you.

BACK TO THE SHADOWS:

Here I am
Standing alone
Gazing silently
Restrained, behind
The border is kept
Such a fine line
And yet, only imagination
Flickering light
Deepening shadow
Call for help
Somewhere in between

And I say
Ahhh . . .
Why can't I
Keep from
Screaming?
Bright light
Pushing me in
Driving me back
Back to the shadows

There you stand
Perfect in all
But kept locked away
Innocent, pure
Just an illusion
Unseen dark side
But there, just hidden
Tainted angel
Corrupt demon
Fight to die
Scream in pain

Ahhh . . .

And I say
Ahhh . . .
Why can't I
Keep from
Screaming?
Bright light
Pushing me in
Driving me back
Back to the shadows

Do you think I believe?
See in such black and white?
Can't you see, shades of gray
Calling you
Cursing you
Crying
Rebuking you
Fall back . . .

And I say
Ahhh . . .
Why can't I
Keep from
Screaming?
Bright light
Pushing me in
Driving me back
Back to the shadows

Ahhh . . .
Screaming . . .
Shadows . . .
Back to the shadows
Ahhh . . .
