Silhouettes Songtext
von Kill the Kong

I close my eyes, I see a black ring of wings
Always within me, always near
I float away from myself and see a hole in my head
My soul is leaking for you to take in

Stay away, I see time is blending
Chasing silhouettes
The axe falls today, let God want me
And I don′t care
The world you know will burst, yeah
Let God want me, and I don't care
Chasing silhouettes

My teeth were sharp, now they seem to decay
I need something to bite through, something to break
As I close my eyes, I see myself burning alive
You waste my time, pollute my mind
Left me out to die (Out to die)
Left me out to navigate in a sea of past mistakes


I′ve been chasing silhouettes for so long
I've been a quiet pretender
Reading faces, I cannot help it
Need a place where I am someone else
Somewhere I can find the animal in me

Chasing silhouettes

You had me right exactly where you wanted me
My limbs were shaped to your needs
I would go way out of line
Now I can feel it creep on
Time was wasted in between the days we thought we had
(We thought we had)
I would go way out of line every waking hour

I've been chasing silhouettes for so long
I′ve been a quiet pretender
Reading faces, I cannot help it
Need a place where I am someone else
Somewhere I can find the animal in me

The whole world′s an ear, the words are myths
The Venus you have a key
The temple opens the vaults and out flies the beast
Right from the deep, it will prepare us all for our sleep


Stay away, I see time is blending
Chasing silhouettes
The axe falls today, let God want me
And I don't care

I′ve been chasing silhouettes for so long
I've been a quiet pretender
(Stick or kill the silhouettes)
Reading faces (Reading faces), I cannot help it (I cannot help it)
Need a place where I am someone else
Somewhere I can find the animal in me

Don′t be afraid of the animal in me
The part of me that is the animal in me
The axe will fall today, let God want me
And I don't care
You will never, never see me fall
I′ll pass right through it all
Need a place where I am someone else
Now that I have found the animal in me
