The Shadows in the Town Where I Live
Shadows have ears in the town where I live
They'll take all your secrets so careful what you give
They come from forgotten roads and the other sides of hills
And they wait and they watch with patience and skill
And the thing about shadows is you can't run away
They're there on bright nights and on the darkest day
So we live with the shadows and pretend we can't see
And we all pray "don't let them be here for me"
Because the shadows want stories and if you start to tell
Well no one knows but they say the shadows drag you to hell
Because people go missing in the town where I live
When the shadows ask them for secrets and they choose to give.
