[Rettke]      As you were down again, you told me all those lies   and you know I've to pray   you're life is still a game, I waited for the price   and I know I've to pay      You've been a runaway, feeling as cold as ice   asked me if you could stay, I felt like been hypnotized   heaven will know, know the reason why   you never showed that sorrow in your eyes      You told me those lies that you'd make a turn   but I could see in your eyes that you never would learn      [CHORUS:]   IN THE SHADOW, shadow of your life   IN THE SHADOW, you could not deny   when you're drunk you were lost, and you're having no way   something is even to say   IN THE SHADOW   of your life      Now that you've gone away I look at the morning sun   all night long I move and stray thinking of things we've done   heaven will know, know the reason why   you had to go on broken wings up the sky
