Song lyrics
We both take the hardest punches
and collect black eyes just to prove it
Still we pass by just like strangers
and we speak just like the closest enemies (enemies)

woah
in the shadows of our lives
we can fall into the night unscarred
woah
in the shadows of our lives
we can never let it go this far

So how my words rendered useless
still I'll pull my lip down to my chest
Just to show you how my jaw is
tired from waiting to say the things that you should hear
You should hear.

woah
in the shadows of our lives
we can fall into the night unscarred
woah
in the shadows of our lives
we can never let it go this far

After all
we're still the same
These empty promises
seem to never change

Theres a smile on my face and its 2:55am
This cramp in my wrist puts me back to sleep 'till it all comes around again...

woah
in the shadows of our lives
we can fall into the night unscarred
woah
in the shadows of our lives
we can never let it go this far

I like Story of the Year a lot, I just don't think that this is them at their best. I love the lyrics, I just don't like the song itself.

Dude, I luv this song. It's my favorite SOTY song. I have their cd, and it's really good. I recommend it to anyone, and check out the songs "Swallow the knife" and "Burning Years", two of my other favorites.This song rules.
