Monday, I was a fool
Tuesday, I was afraid of you
Wednesday, I came in late
Thursday, I can't relate
I'm intoxicated, that's how much I was lost
Shaken to the bone, I'm ever so weak, yeah
It's a foreign feel, but it tastes so good
Now, Thursday I must be strong
'Cause Friday I meet your soul
But I've always felt more
Safe in the shadows
Safe in the arms of the night caressing me
Walk in the shadows
Avoiding the light so
I wouldn't have to fall in love
This way, no one breaks my heart
I wouldn't have to be afraid
I shouldn't have to be afraid
(Thursday I must be strong
'Cause Friday I meet your soul)
Getting used to being alone
It's a scary thought
It's like everything is upside down
It's a foreign colour, but it's so rich
'Cause Thursday tells me I'm wrong
And Friday keeps getting close
But I've always felt more
Safe in the shadows
Safe in the arms of the night caressing me
Walk in the shadows
Avoiding the light so
I wouldn't have to fall in love
This way, no one breaks my heart
I wouldn't have to be afraid
I shouldn't have to be afraid
Happy makes me sad
I'm playing with shadows
Bathing in the dusk of dawn
It's breaking me bad
I'm chasing these shadows
Craving for a better end
Safe in the shadows
Safe in the arms of the night caressing me
Walk in the shadows
Avoiding the light so
I wouldn't have to fall in love
This way, no one breaks my heart
I wouldn't have to be afraid
I shouldn't have to be afraid
Today is the day I'm home
