lyrics

The shadows that define you
You have cast them into your dreams
Come here and I’ll show you
Maybe the darkest of all your scenes

They may never comfort you, from all you hear, from all you see

Paint a darker picture, to hide what once was bright

They’re calling to remind you
They have called you into moonlight
It’s not that they have cornered you
They just want you to feel right
And you know what that’s all about
And the sad truth that you hide

Paint a darker picture to make it seem all right

And your friends will be there for you
They’re calling to remind you; they have trouble reading your dreams

Paint a darker picture, colour it with night
Paint your darkest enemies, hidden in clear sight
Paint your darkest picture, shadow in the light
