shadow of power

show me the way to you

you make my life come true

where's the key to the ivory tower

in the shadow of power

did we never wake up

in the shadow of power

you were meant to be my oasis

my shelter of calmness

feeling warm and safe

for you give me strength

freedom from power

and the lust for life

show me the way to you

you make my life come true

where's the key to the ivory tower

in the shadow of power

show me the way to you

you make my life come true

i need your light like a fading flower

in the shadow of power

still a one thousand steps left to power

fighting against the irony of my own destiny

strokes of despise - false games

are only the incentives of despair

show me the way to you

you make my life come true

where's the key to the ivory tower

in the shadow of power

show me the way to you

you make my life come true

i need your light like a fading flower

in the shadow of power
