Chameleon Circuit - Count the Shadows lyrics

rate me

The day is almost over and the sunlight is going

And the people walk in shadows, completely unknowing

That there's something lethal in the air that they can't see

Now a Time Lord could save me just by turning on a light

But I don't think that the Doctor's gonna show up tonight

And so I'm trying to remember what the library said to me

Gotta focus on all the silhouettes that you can see

'Cause if the number keeps on changing then you're no use to me

So count the shadows, count the shadows

'Cause they're edging towards you like a hungry moth to a flame

So count the shadows, count the shadows

'Cause if you've got more than one

Then you're the victim that they will claim

In the library the darkness is waiting to attack

And some explorers went inside but they ain't never coming back

Namely Miss Evangelista, Anita and two guys called Dave

And the shadows made four thousand other people disappear

And they've been hungry and waiting for a whole damn year

For some fresh meat that isn't gonna register as 'saved'

Gotta focus on all the silhouettes that you can see

'Cause if the number keeps on changing then you're no use to me

So Count the shadows, count the shadows

'Cause they're edging towards you like a hungry moth to a flame

So count the shadows, count the shadows

'Cause if you've got more than one

Then you're the victim that they will claim

An invisible carnivorous aggressive armada

And they go by the name of the Vashta Nerada

A thousand thousand million piranhas in the air

And the tingle on your skin that you feel in the dark

May be the hungry ones who contemplate leaving a mark

So when you're reaching for your light switch, make sure you're prepared

Gotta focus on all the silhouettes that you can see

'Cause if the number keeps on changing then you're no use to me

So count the shadows, count the shadows

'Cause they're edging towards you like a hungry moth to a flame

So count the shadows, count the shadows

'Cause if you've got more than one

Then you're the victim that they will claim

So count the shadows, count the shadows

'Cause they're edging towards you like a hungry moth to a flame

So count the shadows, count the shadows

'Cause if you've got more than one

Then you're the victim that they will claim
