I'm selling heavenly sketches
A world out of my mind
Ready to explode in purity
To fill the wholes inside

An ever moving stream
With glowing rays of light
Emotions tied to past lies
And I know I should let go

Tamed with confidence of a brighter future
I found a flame in the burnt out ashes... burn out, burn out

Fueled these new shores burn
Dark past lies cold
Shadow, my sweet shadow
To you I look no more

Another dawn collapses
Do I need to be reminded?
A glimpse of my safe home
A path to hide all anger

In circles I catch
A torch carried by the immortal
From depths that I created
In vain echoes fade

Wonder where the comments about In Flames going "nu-metal" are in here? Cause I'd love to hear an explanation of how "My Sweet Shadow" doesn't kick some major ass In Flames style from start to finish.

Jesus christ this song is insane. Everything is just top notch. Easily the best song on the album and somewhere high up on the top10 In Flames songs.

Oh man, I'm gonna get crap for this. I don't really like the song that much. Sorry, I've tried, but this song probably falls into the average category for me. I will say that this song doesn't sound nu-metal, but it doesn't seem the same to me. I'm glad it's got the complicated guitar work in there which is why I'll listen to it. But, I don't like the tune that much and I can't explain why, I just don't. Plus, I normally like the industrial elements in music that this song shows, but I just don't like it in In Flames. Maybe I just need to get used to the song...

I think that's understandible cheidiotou. The only thing I find amazing about this song is the chorus. Fridens screaming simply amazes me. The rest is pretty average and non-In Flames standard.

The only song I enjoyed after listening to this album, it's hard to believe this CD was made by the same band who did songs such as Embody The Invisible, Jotun and Moonshield. :(

my car, a '93 Dodge Shadow just crapped out on me. 63,000 miles on it, and it's rusted to hell on the bottom. This song has kept me going lately.
