where the shadow goes

The Awakening

And as the dark begins her breathing
Colder than the clock against the wall
Tearing at the floor and at the ceiling
A smile that knows the weight of it all

And I feel you letting go
As you fade into the shadow
Of a world I'll never know
All the colors I have seen
In the splinters of tomorrow
In a world I'll never know

And now the carnival is leaving
I drift above but never seem to fall
Faces on the doors and on the ceiling
The smile that knows the weight of it all

And I feel you letting go
As you fade into the shadow
Of a world I'll never know
All the colors I have seen
In the splinters of tomorrow
In a world I'll never know

Trick of the light - trick of the dark
I leave the stage and play the part

And I feel you letting go
As you fade into the shadow
Of a world I'll never know
All the colors I have seen
In the splinters of tomorrow
In a world I'll never know
