[Verse 1]. Why breathe a word. When no one needs to know. Why say a thing. To another living soul. [Verse 2]. Let us pay no mind. To a world that seems unkind. For here is something to shelter. Now more than ever. [Chorus]. Shadow endeavours. Our shadow endeavours. Shadow endeavours (x4). [Verse 3]. Why leave us open. And naked to the sun. Why draw their fire. That they'll surely reign upon us. [Verse 4]. Let us pay no mind. To their words and bitter lines. For here's something to shelter. And now more than ever. [Chorus]. Shadow endeavours. These shadow endeavours. Shadow endeavours (x3). More than ever. Shadow endeavours. [Outro] [x2]. Only ever happened to me once. It doesn't come again. I think somebody left me here. Afraid and lonely. A long time ago
