A Shadow And A Prayer
by: Goodnight NurseHope lies deep within
Lead the way, Lead the way blinded
Be afraid, Be afraid of this
Fate cuts through my skin
Lead the way, Lead the way blinded
Be afraid, Be afraid of this
[Pre Chorus:]
Pain runs through my veins
Please take it away
[Chorus:]
I'm not ready to leave
I'm not ready to die
Hear my screams tonight
Fear hides in my eyes
Lead the way, Lead the way blinded
Be afraid, Be afraid of this
Truth is pushed aside
Lead the way, Lead the way blinded
Be afraid, Be afraid of this
[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus x2]
Hear my screams tonight [x4]
[Chorus x2]
