Letra de Shadows

[Verse 1]
She wipes the tears out of her eyes
And then she gets into the shower
There's bruises on her thighs
She's in there scrubbing for an hour
She can't remove the smell
A crimson trail goes down the drain
This can't be Hell
Not even Hell can manufacture this much pain
[Verse 2]
She drys herself, she combs her hair
She's got the courage of a soldier
She puts on clothes, and then she swears
That someday when she's older
She's going to disappear
And melt away in all her dreams
And stop this endless night of violent tears
And stifled silent screams
[Pre-Chorus]
She blames herself when he's mad
She thinks she's done something bad
She thinks it's normal to be sad
[Chorus]
We are the shadows of the abused
Of the neglected, the beaten and bruised
We are the misfits, we are the lost
We are the broken, we paid the cost
[Verse 3]
She lays in bed, her eyes are closed
She pretends that she's fast asleep
The door is cracked
A silhouette enters the room
And starts to creep
She holds her breath, she squints her eyes
She bites her lip, gives off a tear
She tries to slip away to somewhere
In her mind and disappear
[Verse 4]
She feels a hand over her mouth
She knows she's not to make a sound
She reaches for her teddy bear
But Teddy's knocked onto the ground
Every second feels like hours
Every night goes on for weeks
She tries to wipe the stench of cigarettes
And whisky off her cheeks
[Pre-Chorus]
Why do you hurt her inside
You are supposed to provide
You piece of trash, you need to die
I hope you die!
[Chorus]
We are the shadows of the abused
Of the neglected, the beaten and bruised
We are the misfits, we are the lost
We are the broken, we paid the cost
[Bridge]
We are survivors and we have a choice
We have the right to let out our voice
We won't go quietly into the night
We're here to stay and we'll stay to fight
[Chorus]
We are the shadows of the abused
Of the neglected, the beaten and bruised
We are the misfits, we are the lost
We are the broken, we paid the cost
[Verse 5]
I think its time we find a new solution
A revolution, we're done with this war
I think its time we take back what is ours
Let's heal the scars, we won't take this anymore
[Chorus]
We are the shadows of the abused
Of the neglected, the beaten and bruised
We are the misfits, we are the lost
We are the broken, we paid the cost
[Bridge]
We are survivors and we have a choice
We have the right to let out our voice
We won't go quietly into the night
We're here to stay and we'll stay to fight
[Verse 6]
We are the shadows of the abused
We are the empty shell of the used
We are the damaged, alone in the crowd
We've got things to say, and we'll say them out loud
We are discarded but we still have dreams
We cry on the inside and we hide our screams
But we escaped, we survived, and we're free
It's time for a change, let's do things differently
[Outro]
We are the shadows of the abused!
We are the shadows of the abused!
