Shadow Of Fear lyrics

Artist  : Madness 
Song : Shadow Of Fear
 

I walk through Camden town in the evening,
strolling silently and hardly breathing.
Footsteps behind me slightly quicker,
the corner of my eye a shadowy flicker.

I wonder if he`s after my soul again tonight.
Stops to whisper with the shadows but still keeps
me in his sight.
I shout at passing strangers but they don`t seem
aware,
don`t want to get involved in my spiritual
affair.

Tonight my fears are growing worse and worse.
I feel him brewing up an evil curse.
I sense a chill creep up my spine
I want to scream but only whine
because I know it can`t be true
mind`s gone now legs it`s up to you.

I wonder if he`s after my soul again tonight.
Stops to whisper in the shadows but still keeps
me in his sight.
I shout at passing strangers but they don`t seem
aware,
don`t want to get involved in my spititual affair

I try to accept him as my partner. 
He still makes cold his manic laughter.
But every time I try to turn around he throws my
fears
and makes no sound he stirs them to the ground.

Acheing muscles, puff and pant I run.
To stagger home and hide behind my mum.
But even when I`m safely in my bed.
I know that he is waiting in my head.

I wonder if he`s after my soul again tonight.
Stops to whisper in the shadows but still keeps
me in his sight.
I shout at passing strangers but they don`t seem
aware,
don`t want to get involved in my spiritual
affair.
