The Shadow Knocks at the Door to Her Soul by ESXAY Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse: 1]
The nights are long
As she sits
Waiting in bed
Worry, worried mother
All these (dark) thoughts take her head
What's left unsaid? Is he dead?
She doesn't know - what to think
The only time her mind stops
Is when she's finished a drink

[Chorus]
Oh my boy
Where'd you go?
Oh my boy
Oh I see
Nothing
But a shadow
(A shadow)
[Verse: 2]
The boy is sick
As he sits
Craving darkness, in his bed
Wasting away all alone
Just him and the shadows
He's dying to stop, it's taken his heart
He loads up his syringe
The guilt eats him right up
Quicker than the dope is

[Chorus]
Oh my boy
Where'd you go?
Oh my boy
Oh I see
Nothing
But a shadow
(A shadow)

[Bridge]
He is all hurting inside
And he can't hide it
I look at his arms
I see black and blue
All up and down
All around
(All around)
(All around)
(All around)
(All around)
[Chorus]
Oh my boy
Where'd you go?
Oh my boy
Oh I see
Nothing
But a shadow
(A shadow)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh my boy
Come back home
Oh my boy
Was taken
By a dark shadow
(Dark shadow)
