Lyrics Black Veil Brides – Shadows Die
Text:
Tear down the cross,
Splinters and shards.
Remembered this Trojan horse
Rode to the land we enter.
We’ll burn away
And free our fallen brothers
From shackles made
Of steel and bones of soldiers.
Yeah!
Let shadows die
So I can feel alive.
A church of lies
Can’t tell me what is right.
Our little victories and desires won’t live on
Let shadows die
So I can feel alive, feel alive
I feel alive, yeah
In fear and faith
The candles light our freedom.
By tainted night we live this war of wisdom.
The streets are stained
With blood that ran their kingdom
And feed the beast that lies beneath our treason.
Let shadows die
So I can feel alive.
A church of lies
Can’t tell me what is right.
Our little victories and desires won’t live on.
Let shadows die
So I can feel alive, feel alive
Fear will round up these rebels
These deviants, these so-called wild ones
We will litter the streets with their bones
And annihilate the dangerous and obtuse ideas poisoning your children,
Endangering your freedom, giving rise to the destruction of the benevolent future we have prepared for you.
You belong in the shadows, but the shadows are where you will remain safe.
Do not disobey.
Let shadows die
So I can feel alive.
A church of lies
Can’t tell me what is right.
Our little victories and desires won’t live on.
Let shadows die
So I can feel alive, feel alive
(I feel alive)
