Theo Nightshade - Shadow Play Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Late night jazz club, smoke in the air
Playing games with truth, nobody seems to care
Behind these notes, I hide my face
Dancing through lies with effortless grace

[Chorus]
Shadow play, in the dim light
Wearing masks that fit just right
Truth and lies, they intertwine
Like smoke rings in this jazz design

[Verse 2]
Smooth as bourbon, sharp as brass
Living life behind stained glass
They think they know me, but they don't
Reading scripts that I won't, oh I won't

[Bridge]
Every note's a secret code
Every smile's carefully showed
In this game of hide and seek
The real me's the one you'll never meet

[Verse 3]
Downtown lights and city rain
Playing changes, masking pain
Cool and calculated moves
Nothing left here left to prove

[Chorus]
Shadow play, in the dim light
Wearing masks that fit just right
Truth and lies, they intertwine
Like smoke rings in this jazz design

[Outro]
When the music fades away
And the crowd has gone to stay
Still I'm dancing with my shade
In this game that I have made
