Manticora Shadows With Tales To Tell Lyrics

Shadows With Tales To Tell Lyrics

In my room burns a single flame

And night has come, so nothing looks the same

Shadows on the floor,shadows on the wall

So alive, you can almost hear them call



I start to sleep, but my eyes still see

I've taken the bait and now my mind has been set free

As the room starts to turn and figures start to twist

I'm drowning in blackness, in the sea of mist



Stand very still, be very silent

Shadows with tales to tell

Stand very still, be very silent

Singing of Heaven and Hell



Lying, sleeping, dreaming neon white

Angels and Demons coming out of the ligt 

Shadows on the floor, whispering in my ear

Telin' me ancient truths of why we are here



Stand very still, be very silent

Shadows with tales to tell

Stand very still, be very silent

Singing of Heaven and Hell



The shadows are dancing tonight

By the power of one single light



Visions show me places that can never be

Terrible and beautiful, not for the eyes to see

Out of the twilight, silence is born

But I awake and now my dream is gone



Stand very still, be very silent

Darkness with tales to tell

Stand very still, be very silent

Singing of Heaven and Hell

Stand very still, be very silent

The shadows are dancing tonight

Stand very still, be very silent

By the power of the single light
