Chasing Shadows

[Verse 1]

Eighteen and a wicker basket

Red cape and an open casket

Tied up to a broken lever

If I move, it hurts forever

I am not that host

But I want her

Wolf in a winter playground

White snow to let the red out

I hear that alarms are better

Than a warning, like a feather

I don't like my tone

But I want her

[Chorus]

So here I am

I'm falling to my knees

I'm digging at the shadows of a ghost

When you come around

So here I am

I'm waiting for the tease

I'm sleeping in the gallows that I chose

When you come around

[Verse 2]

Why sleep I can't forget it

Moonrise I'm now committed

Your move 'cause I am tethered

Like a slave, I don't know better

I listen for your words

Yeah I want her

Lost boys in a haunted forest

Bright things in the maze before us

My life has now been severed

I can't bare to remember who I was before

The day I met her

[Chorus]

So here I am

I'm falling to my knees

I'm digging at the shadows of a ghost

When you come around

So here I am

I'm waiting for the tease

I'm sleeping in the gallows that I chose

When you come around

So here I am

I'm falling to my knees

I'm digging at the shadows of a ghost

When you come around

So here I am

I'm waiting for the tease

I'm sleeping in the gallows that I chose

When you come around

So here I am

I'm falling to my knees

I'm digging at the shadows of a ghost

When you come around

So here I am

I'm waiting for the tease

I'm sleeping in the gallows that I chose

When you come around
