My Shadow Out of Time

Do you remember way back when
We swore we'll never be like them
How we took a different stance
And envisioned another chance

Tomorrow will be a better day
And that's how the story goes
Tomorrow we will be on our way
But tonight we're sleeping buffaloes

We never quit the search for doors
We met the most obnoxious souls
We laughed at impossibilities
Retained some sensibilities

And just like minstrels at a massacre
In a vast & deadly dance
The open doors they will soon be shut
We're on fire without a chance

Come on you Phantom Warrior
My shadow out of time
Come on you Phantom Warrior
My brother in divine
While Miskatonic dreamin'
You're fallin' far behind
My shadow out of time

My shadow out of time
My shadow out of time

Romeo came and played his game
But love means eventual pain
That Juliet she may kiss your feet
But victory means eventual defeat

Meanwhile city in the winterlong
Idiotic point of view
I dwelled in hell on Earth
To write this song
And try to make it up to you

Come on you Phantom Warrior
My shadow out of time
Come on you Phantom Warrior
My brother in divine
Come on you Phantom Warrior
My shadow out of time
Come on you Phantom Warrior
My brother in divine

And while Miskatonic dreamin'
You're fallin' far behind
My shadow out of time

While Miskatonic dreamin'
You're fallin' far behind
My shadow out of time
