Dear Shadow

Oh-oh, oh, oh Oh-oh, oh, oh The first day that we met I saw you out of the corner of my eye, I was five You're still the thumb that I'm under You're still the thumb that I'm under Oh, I hid you away, pushing you down You left me caught between a light and a dark place I'm going to ground (oh-oh, oh, oh) When out looking for love, three is a crowd We'd always lose our way between the black ('ween the black) And the grey (and the grey) I've been lonely, keeping you back there behind me Got this swollen feeling we could make amends But you're holding me back, yeah, you're holding me back I just wanna run, dear shadow Walking every shade of who I am Maybe we could start again? On the wall, I was ten You were more than a feeling By my side, unwanted The sun would see you come creeping Made of fear, I was strong There's no shame to have you here Where you belong I've been lonely, keeping you back there behind me Got this swollen feeling we could make amends But you're holding me back, yeah, you're holding me back I just wanna run, dear shadow Walking every shade of who I am Maybe we could start again? La la la la la La la la la la la La la la la la La la la la la la La la la la la La la la la la la La la la la la I've been lonely, keeping you back there behind me Got this swollen feeling we could make amends I see it's only me needing you back there behind me In my soul, I feel like maybe we'll be friends But you're holding me back, yeah, you're holding me back And I just wanna run, dear shadow Walking every shade of who I am Maybe we could start again?
