Just when you think Its all been settled and Theres nothing wrong Youre losing sight of where This all might lead And where its gone We live inside the darkness Our hopes run free tonight With every thought that beckons For another try So many years we spent Just going through the motions With no real sunrise Coming clear on the horizon You write the ending all alone The yearning never died Although the truth is still untold No one seems to mind In the shadows of sweet despair In the window you see theres nothing there Just when you thought it could change forever You let it slip away In the shadows of sweet despair In your soul it seems theres nothing left You got a taste of what you wanted Just when you think its all been written And the endings done Although you fight for all its worth You see your dreams denied But every part of you that hurts Will refuse to die In the shadows of sweet despair In the window you see theres nothing there Just when you thought it could change forever You let it slip away In the shadows of sweet despair In your soul it seems theres nothing left You got a taste of what it meant In the shadows of sweet despair Everything you lost will come to find you there Just when you thought it could change forever You let it slip away In the shadows of sweet despair In the center of your soul theres nothing left You got a taste of what you wanted
