[Verse 1] The shadow, my shadow I can't see Still figure suspended behind me The spirits and shapes they make I've never grown to hold their face in the dark [Chorus 1] So the offer I make Is a promise to stay here Though my wounds do grow May I hold onto this hope [Verse 2] Their dark heads will quiet in my sight Hands will stay from me this night if I only close my eyes To the ones outside of my sight
[Verse 3] The offer I make Is a promise to stay here If I only close my eyes to the ones outside of my sight And give honor to what I can't know They will walk with me where I go But be still behind their shroud May they never speak out loud, out loud Ooh (3x) [Chorus 2] So the offer I make Is a promise to stay here May they leave me out of their wandering And be still
