Just A Shadow Lyrics by King Diamond

Just A Shadow

Again Im so alone, the wine is pouring down
No one to share with, no one to care with
The only light in my life
Comes from the candlelight, black candles left behind
As Im sitting through the night
Im so cold and dark inside
Angel, your memory will haunt me till the day I die
Just a shadow, a shadow of a man
Im just a shadow, a shadow of a man
The eyes of statues standing along the nave
They seem to follow my every move, every tear I shed
I am no longer living, but I am still not dead
Im somewhere in between, I am of the unseen
Must we have the other side, just to feel alive?
Oh I wonder what would be had we not created me
Just a shadow, a shadow of a man
Im just a shadow, a shadow of a man
The eyes of statues standing along the nave
They seem to follow my every move
They drive me insane
Surrounded by darkness in this cold church of thine
I try to remember, all that once was mine
I dont know what tomorrow will bring
But if life is so divine, how come I suffer so in mine?
How come I suffer in mine?
The eyes of statues standing along the nave
They seem to follow my every move
They drive me insane
I am no longer of the living, but I am still not dead
Im somewhere in between, I am of the unseen
I lived a lifetime of sorrow and hate, up until the other day
Thats when I left this sick old world behind
Oh how love can make you blind
