Shadowverse

In the first simulation, thought becomes form
A cell grows a mind, a heart starts to burn
The pupil shows promise, but kill him again
It's a cold dialectic, may he rise in the end

From the guillotine to the chalk outline
He's always hanging from the same rope he been trying to climb
When you're up on the wire and you can't commit
And you can't hold the tension, I guess that's it

You've had a thousand lives, now you're down to one
Trying to survive in the shadowverse
Every borderland, every hungry wolf
Now to make your stand in the shadowverse

Then he's a crusader with a grail to find
But he's got no sword and there's not much time
Then he's a warrior chieftain, a violent man
As she cries on the phone, he does not understand

Then he's Achilles who takes off his ring
In the New York penthouse while she's packing her things
Now up on the wire, if you can't commit
And you can't hold the tension, I guess that's it

You've had a thousand lives, now you're down to one
Trying to survive in the shadowverse
Every borderland, every hungry wolf
Now to make your stand in the shadowverse

You've had a thousand lives, now you're down to one
Trying to survive in the shadowverse
Every borderland, every hungry wolf
Now to make your stand in the shadowverse

Out of time
Out of time and fading
Out of time
Empty hearts waiting

You've had a thousand lives, now you're down to one
Trying to survive in the shadowverse
Every borderland, every hungry wolf
Now to make your stand in the shadowverse

You've had a thousand lives, now you're down to one
Trying to survive in the shadowverse
Every borderland, every hungry wolf
Now to make your stand in the shadowverse

Out of time
Out of time and fading
Out of time
Empty hearts waiting
