robbie dupree - shadows on the wall lyrics

[verse 1]
twenty years ago, i said goodbye to my young friends
now i stand among them once again
was it shame or was it pride that brought me to this place at night?
looking down upon the wall of tears
and all around me are the faces marked by emptiness
and joined by all this pain

[pre+chorus]
there is no turnin’ back, this bitter page is carved in black
nothing we can change

[chorus]
we are shadows on the wall
strangers in this place still buy memories
time cannot erase shadows on the wall

[verse 2]
a father finds the son he lost so long ago
silently remembering his face
holdin’ back his tears some way
but i cried when i heard him say
“if i could take your place”
and i am blinded by the sight of war’s finality
as i read your name
[pre+chorus]
there is no turnin’ back, this bitter page is carved in black
nothing we can change

[chorus]
we are shadows on the wall
strangers in this place still buy memories
time cannot erase shadows on the wall

[bridge]
who decides in america?
running out of time in america

[chorus]
we are shadows on the wall
strangers in this place still buy memories
time cannot erase shadows on the wall

[outro]
(shadows on the wall)
strangers in this place still buy memories
time cannot erase shadows on the wall
i said, brother
(shadows on the wall)
oh, can you hear me? can you hear me?
(danger’s on the wall)
i cried all last night when i read your name
(brothers on the wall)
we are shadows on the wall
(shadows on the wall)
oh, i wanna know who decides in america
(in the shadows, in the shadows)
(hey)
(ooh yeah, oh)
(i miss my brother, oh, ooh yeah)
(oh yeah)
