The planets are shaking
Their heads at the earth
Oh what has become of their sister in blue
Don't be deterred, agent provocateur
As you parade, while you know
Someone's aiming at you
People's backstreet ways
Fall into place
Tokens to be found
They track down lies
Antagonize the decoy
"Make your choice!"
They wanna make you raise your voice
To fight for a change
It's always the same
And what if this life is feeling
Like a world of bliss to you
And you don't feel like
Going against the grain today?
I believe
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
To defy defiance and swallow evil
Here come the shadow eaters
I believe although you shouldn't watch them
Without safety glasses
They strike at sunrise - angel squad
Here come the shadow eaters
One hundred seventy five zillion
And three thousand eight hundred
And twenty nines lives
In history approximately
Laid at the door of him
Who never knew and if he did
I'm not quite sure that
He would quite have agreed
Backstreet ways - into place
Tokens to be found
Track down lies, antagonize the decoy
They chase down grief
To wallow in and make believe
You ain't gonna win whatever way:
We're all gonna die
Mean and sly
And somewhere in between
There's life they say
But what if we're not made
To overshadow black?
I believe
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
To defy defiance and conquer evil
Here come the shadow eaters
I believe you don't see 'em
With or without safety glasses
They strike at sunrise - angel battalion
Here come the shadow eaters
I believe
Don't think you'll ever see them
With your naked eye
And they're tired of showing off on demand
They are shadow eaters
I believe although we never see them
Cause they fly from reason
Tiny but forceful
I tell you, hmm, those shadow eaters...
