[Verse 1]
You give me the feeling that I'm going nowhere
Just by the look in your eyes
We wear the same exact color of purple
So what makes yours better than mine?
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been lying in bed
Comparing my hair to the shade of your ceiling
I've been thinking about it
So much that I might start to believe it
[Chorus]
Why do you make me your shadow?
Take me for granted and push me around, oh
Why do you make me your shadow?
I live in the dark every time you're around
[Verse 2]
No, it's not that I think you're particularly conscious
Of needing the light to yourself
As I try and I work for a glimpse of attention
Pathetically crying for help, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been lying in bed
Comparing my hair to the shade of your ceiling
I've been thinking about it
So much that I might start to believe it
[Chorus]
Why do you make me your shadow?
Take me for granted and push me around, oh (Push me around)
Why do you make me your shadow?
I live in the dark every time you're around
[Bridge]
So I'll get out of here
Won't go into detail
Quietly I disappear
And you won't miss me
Until I fall back in
And then you walk right out
[Chorus]
So why do you make me your shadow?
Take me for granted and push me around
Why do you make me your shadow? (Why do you make)
I live in the dark every time, oh
Why do you make me your shadow? (Make me your shadow)
Take me for granted and push me around, oh (Push me around)
Why do you make me your shadow? (Make me your shadow)
I live in the dark every time you're around
[Outro]
Why do you make me your shadow? (Oh, oh)
Take me for granted and push me around (Push me around)
Why do you make me your shadow? (Make me your shadow)
I live in the dark (Dark) every time you're around
