The Shadow Knows
Beginning Inspired by Link Wray;
“Who knows what evil lurks, in the hearts and mind of men;
The shadow knows”
```~~~…~~~```
I have wished and prayed for many a thing,
Often left walkin along the dark end of the street
Is it I or my shadow that is just pretend,
Oh, there is a force drivin me on,
Drivin me on and on;
Somethin that aint pretend,
Somethin that can’t be stopped,
The shadow knows,
Whom I really fear,
Is it God or man,
Or maybe it’s just pretend,
I search for answers of universal truth
Is it blasphemy, or do I just pretend,
The shadow knows,
Yes my shadow knows;
```~~~… …~~~```
```~~~…A wolf an shadow Triolet…~~~```
```~~~.~~~```
I have wished and prayed for many a thing,
Chasing my moonlight,
I written songs for life, I written songs for death;
I searched for my science, I searched for my faith,
Often left walkin along the dark end of the street
Is it I or my shadow that is just pretend,
Oh, there is a force drivin me on,
Drivin me on and on;
Somethin that aint pretend,
Through whip and chain,
It’s forged;
Somethin that can’t be stopped,
Somethin that can’t be tamed,
The shadow knows,
Whom I really fear,
Is it God or man,
Or maybe it’s just pretend,
I search for answers of universal truth
Is it blasphemy, or do I just pretend,
The shadow knows,
Yes my shadow knows;
`~,,~`
“Who knows what evil lurks, in the hearts and mind of men;
The shadow knows”
I have wished and prayed for many a thing,
Chasing my moonlight,
By moonlight I written songs for life, I written songs for death;
For death I searched for my science, I searched for my faith,
I have wished and prayed for many a thing,
Often left walkin along the dark end of the street
In the street, is it I or my shadow that is just pretend,
```~~~…Is it just pretend…~~~```
Oh, there is a force drivin me on,
`~.I have wished and prayed for many a thing.~`
Drivin me on and on;
Somethin that aint pretend,
Through whip and chain,
It’s forged;
Somethin that can’t be stopped,
Somethin that can’t be tamed,
The shadow knows,
Knows, Whom is really feared,
Feared… Is it God or man,
God or man, or maybe it’s just pretend,
Pretending, I search for answers of universal truth
Universal truth, Tis it blasphemy, or do I just pretend,
…The shadow knows…
Yes my shadow knows,
Chasing my moonlight;
“Who knows what evil lurks, in the hearts and mind of men;
The shadow knows”
