In the Shadows

(Verse 1)

In the factory halls, where the cold winds blow,

The machines grind on, and the faces show,

A hunger for control, a thirst that never fades,

In the shadows, we’re just numbers, just empty shades.

(Pre-Chorus)

We are the dogs, tied to a chain,

Fighting for scraps, it's all in vain.

You’ve got your kings, your lords and thieves,

We’re left to wander, left to grieve.

(Chorus)

We’re all in the shadows, lost in the sound,

The rulers above, while we break the ground.

You wear your crowns made of fear and lies,

We’re the animals, hiding in disguise.

(Verse 2)

The pigs at the top, they don’t even care,

Feeding on power, breathing the air,

Of privilege and wealth, while the truth is drowned,

They’ve got us bound, we’re chained to the ground.

(Pre-Chorus)

We are the sheep, just a silent herd,

Voices unheard, every word deferred.

And you can try to lead, but the storm’s too loud,

We’re rising now, we won’t be cowed.

(Chorus)

We’re all in the shadows, lost in the sound,

The rulers above, while we break the ground.

You wear your crowns made of fear and lies,

We’re the animals, hiding in disguise.

(Bridge)

And the walls come crashing, can you hear the sound?

The truth will shake the hollow ground.

We won’t be silent, we won’t be still,

The voices of the fallen rise, against your will.

(Outro)

We’re the dogs, the pigs, the sheep,

Waking from our endless sleep.

In the shadows, we find our voice,

Now we stand, it’s time to make our choice.
