The Thermals - The Sunset

I am never alone
My shadows are close where I need them to be
I keep them with me
I am never afraid,
My shadows are close
I am safe when they stay
They whisper the way

They hold my head to the sky
Point my eyes to the end
Now the sunset won’t pass me by again

I stray from the path
My shadows are late, they escape from my mind
They fall behind
Now I feel free to kill
But I know my shadows they follow me still
And they probably always will

They hold my head to the sky
Point my eyes to the end
Now the sunset won’t pass me by again
Now the sunset won’t pass me by, won’t pass me by again

I am always alert, although my enemies are few
I know the ones you will hurt
Are the closest to you
I am always awake in the fear they are gone
But my shadows are fate
They’ve been here all along

They hold my head to the sky
Point my eyes to the end
Now the sunset won’t pass me by again
Now the sunset won’t pass me by, won’t pass me by again
Oh the sunset won’t? Pass me by, won’t pass me by, won’t pass me by again
