Early on, their music focused more on folk and blues; however, their sound evolved organically into alternative rock, adding a unique and diverse twist to the genre.

Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Am F G C
Lost in a world of make-believe,
Am F G C
Hiding behind the mask of glee.
Am F G C
Sailing on the sea of despair,
Am F G C
Finding solace nowhere.
(Chorus)
F G Am C
Drowning Shadows, in the night,
F G Am C
Seeking comfort in the moonlight.
F G Am C
We’re all victims of our plight,
F G Am C
Drowning shadows, out of sight.
(Verse 2)
Am F G C
Towers of dreams come crashing down,
Am F G C
In the silence, echoes the sound.
Am F G C
Chasing the ghost of yesterday,
Am F G C
With every price, we’ve got to pay.
(Chorus)
F G Am C
Drowning Shadows, in the night,
F G Am C
Seeking comfort in the moonlight.
F G Am C
We’re all victims of our plight,
F G Am C
Drowning shadows, out of sight.
