[Written by Jon Oliva]
As I walk in the shadows of darkness
Without a place to hide
You know I can't help but look
over my shoulder
I'm waiting for the knife to arrive
And I know I might seem a little bit paranoid
You know, it's just my
way
Sometimes I get the feeling I'm on borrowed time
Anyway, that's what most of us say
Something's taking over me
I don't
know just what could it be
Feels strange, like a kind of glow
What it is I don't want to know
And in another life I swear
I've heard it all before
And in the dead of night
It sits just outside the door
I believe that tonight I'll be
wasted
Can't stop me when I'm out on the town
You know, I wake dreaming about tomorrow
And what it may all bring to
light
You know, I believe all men were created equal
Red, yellow, black or white
Something's taking over me
I don't know
just what could it be
Feels strange, like a kind of glow
What it is I don't want to know
And in another life I swear I've
heard it all before
And in the dead of night
It sits just outside the door
I believe that tonight I'll be wasted
Can't
stop me when I'm out on the town
I can feel it, I can taste it
Can't stop me when I'm out on the town
