tarja - shadow play lyrics

[verse 1]
looking at the mirror, asking questions with old, weary eyes
once a girl who had no name dressed as an angel in disguise
from the corner of her bedroom, light illuminates
crawling shadows, cut out silhouettes
with the darkness, a dancing marionette

[verse 2]
smiled away with such a beauty never seen before
drowned by rain of thorns and petals falling at her curtain call
this mortal coil year after year recalled a sad charade
like a shadow play we can’t forget
in the darkness, a crying marionette

[chorus]
make me believe, i must go on
life is a warning, don’t want to risk it anymore
i want to leave this place so wrong
it left me terrified to lose all i am living for

[verse 3]
alone, imprisoned by the echoes of the empty hall
she made a deal with the enemy and let her fences fall
from the dust she built a door to frame new memories
once a shadow, dancing with her fears
lights the darkness, now the puppeteer

[chorus]
make me believe, i must go on
life is a warning, don’t want to risk it anymore
i want to leave this place so wrong
it left me terrified to lose all i am living for

[bridge]
there’s a world inside, we are holding the keys
one day at a time, not trying to please
tell me of anything that is lasting forever
you are your thoughts
what are we waiting for?

[chorus]
make me believe, i must go on
life is a warning, don’t want to risk it anymore
i want to leave this place so wrong (this place so wrong)
it left me terrified to lose all i am living for (living for)
i want to leave this place so wrong (this place so wrong)
it left me terrified to lose all i am living for (living for)
make me believe, i must go on
life is a warning, don’t want to risk it anymore
