Lurking Shadows

[Verse] In the dark corners they hide scared to breathe Silent whispers echo never to leave Ghosts in daylight they never speak Shadows of doubt pulling them weak [Verse 2] Anxiety creepin' like a silent thief Locked inside the mind no relief Windows to the world barred and blue Eyes wide open they see right through [Chorus] Lurkin in the night always there never here Silent screams drowned out by fear Sobriety's chain tight round the heart Can't find courage to make a start [Bridge] Muffled cries in the dead of night Caged birds trapped in endless plight Swallowed voices drowned in pain Breaking free seems all in vain [Verse 3] Cold sweat beads on a furrowed brow Every step a mountain don't know how Lost in time stuck in place Life's a race that they never chase [Chorus] Lurkin in the night always there never here Silent screams drowned out by fear Sobriety's chain tight round the heart Can't find courage to make a start
