Shadows
i know i’m afraid
i’m drunk and i’m tired
and the city i walk in
the city i walk in
feels like it swallows
with my hand in my pocket
i feel like the shadows
feel like the shadows
so i’m afraid
afraid that i have made a mistake
and now there’s nothing here for me
the things you once told me
the thoughts you once gave me
sound like the wind in my ears
that blows out the knots i’ve got
in my long brown hair
i feel like the shadows
i don’t even bother for
any more than that
what did you whisper
in my ear?
what did you tell me
that i wanted to hear?
what was the answer
you wanted me to find out?
there’s no lies
no lies
no lies
brought back something
a bit for you
a bit for everyone
you and all your pieces
you and all your pieces
made me come
and all that love you gave
strong enough to make me stay
and now it will be alright
i feel like the shadows
i don’t even bother for
any more than that
what did you whisper
in my ear?
what was the answer
you wanted me to find out?
there’s no lies
no lies
no lies
