Shadow Life Songtext
von Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators

A shadow life will only break your heart
It steals the light and tears us all apart
Like a shadow in the dark

I know you′re living in a shadow life
Better watch your step
Should you stumble you're gonna fall

′Cause deadly secrets are the killing kind
Rope around your neck
It's a wonder you breathe at all

You turn a blind eye and I hold on
(You're a fool; will it ever change)
Why can′t you ever see

The shadow life
Will only break your heart
Like I said before

It steals the light
And tears us all apart
Like a shadow in the dark


I can feel it when you′re under me
There is something else
There is something I can't let go

Never silenced to the misery
Feel it in your sex every time
That we′re all alone

And still you just deny it ohh
(But I can't take this anymore)
But I can′t turn away

The shadow life
Will only break your heart
Like I said before

It steals the light
And tears us all apart
Like a shadow in the dark

It's coming
It′s coming
It haunts us, it tears us apart
Just like a shadow in the dark

You're a shadow in the dark


The shadow life
Will only break your heart
Like I said before

It steals the light
And tears us all apart
Like a shadow in the dark

I feel it when you're under me
There′s a dirty secret to this misery yeah
The shadow life will only break your heart
Like a shadow in the dark

You′re a shadow in the dark
You're a shadow in the dark
