[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
