Hello everyone! It's May - and therefore the perfect time for new music! With "Shadows" we're excited to present our third original collaboration and second collab release of 2025 (with more to come!). We've been writing and recording this song in early December 2024 in Germany and finished video works just right after Easter 2025 in Slovakia. Also our friend Manou Rao from France was down to add some of his amazing guitar skills to the song with the phenomenal guitar solo. Whilst being super interested into y'all's feedback, we are very very thankful to all the support we got from you all - and yes, we see you! Thank you so much to everyone who helped on the project! Huge shoutout to Matej Kuba and Peter Valentík for being in the video. Many thanks to General Trucking, a.s. Žiar nad Hronom, for providing the amazing Trucks and many thanks to our star bird Cory from Sokoliarsky dvor Astur - Červený Kameň for playing the key role in our music video.

Lyrics:
Sun shines so bright up in the skies
Everyone laughing, being nice
Alongside the beauty there’s a guy
The brother of smiles, smiles with a lie
And everybody sees it
In every street it lives, believe it
The time has come to face the real
You’re not alone, the murder is here
Cause every day and every night
Observing you and always standing by your side
You’re awake or you’re in dreams
No matter what, inside it screams
In black they come for a fight
No face to hide
The shadows are within your sight
Cause every day and every night
There are your shadows following with the light
You take the light, turn the tv off
But are you sure he is gone?
As soon as you try to check it up
The light has brought back his son
No matter what you’ll always see it
In every room it lives, believe it
The time has come so face the real
You’re not alone, the murder’s here
Cause every day and every night
Observing you and always standing by your side
You’re awake or you’re in dreams
No matter what, inside it screams
In black they come for a fight
No face to hide
The shadows are within your sight
Cause every day and every night
There are your shadows following with the light
But don’t worry nobody ever can change it
With every bright the dark comes, you name it
But when it’s there and pullin’ the knife
You will die unless you kill the light
Cause every day and every night
Observing you and always standing by your side
You’re awake or you’re in dreams
No matter what, inside it screams
In black they come for a fight
No face to hide
The shadows are within your sight
Cause every day and every night
There are your shadows following with the light
