lyrics

Ash to ash, so it goes.
For tonight, let's just suppose,
that I'm left gritty, to my own devices
and the hour holds more surprises.

'Cause tonight - I'm going out of control.
I've been like this for most my life.
I want to make it stop, but it grows.
And I could not leave it behind.

In the shadows don't leave me alone.
In the shadows don't leave me alone.
In the shadows don't leave me alone.
You're the only one who knows where I belong.

Dust to dust, I'm still right here.
And if I left, I'd be with you.
And this is just something I'm used to.
A bad excuse and insincere.

I shake away the ash, softly.
Tonight, it's time for me to leave.
And while the dust it leaves from me,
for one last time, you hear me say:

In the shadows don't leave me alone
In the shadows don't leave me alone
In the shadows don't leave me alone
You're the only one who knows where I can be found
(So come and get me if you want)
