Jack of Shadows |
| Jack of Shadows, nocturnal outlaw |
| Daemon of darkness, brother to the night |
| Jack of Shadows, what’s he hanging out for? |
| King of the dimensions, the other side of light |
| And when he passes |
| He casts shades of mystery black |
| Flowing like molasses |
| It’s only Jack of Shadows on his way back |
| To the kingdom of thieves |
| Before the skies crack |
| Jack of Shadows, cloak of constellations |
| Draped around his body, blanking out his face |
| Jack of Shadows, don’t believe in God |
| He steals from the future, fades without a trace |
| And when the flames flare |
| Flickering forms of velvet dark |
| He plays his games there |
| It’s only Jack of Shadows, he’s lit up by a spark |
| To run into the umbra as fast as a shark |
| Jack of Shadows, ultraviolet eyesight |
| Giving him the vision that cats-eye infrared |
| Jack of Shadows, watch him as he flies right |
| Through all of the umbras, quicker than the dead |
| And when he passes |
| He casts shades of mystery black |
| Flowing like molasses |
| It’s only Jack of Shadows on his way back |
| To the kingdom of thieves |
| Before the skies crack |
| Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows |
| Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows |
| Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows |
| Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows |
| Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows |
| Jack of Shadows |
