Lyrics

Shadows

[Chorus]

Everywhere I look, everywhere I look

I see shadows haunting over me

And I wonder when they'll let me be

[Verse 1]

Lost in my mind late at night

And you're who I see in my dreams

Deepest eyes tucked aside

A pain that doesn't sting

[Pre-Chorus]

I know I've ran and I know I hide

I know I've changed, I know I lied

I knew I should but I couldn't see

Bridges burnin' in back of me

Oh, help me out, holy ghost

I have lost the only thing I know

And all, all I have left are shadows

[Chorus]

Everywhere I look, everywhere I look

I see shadows haunting over me

And I wonder when they'll let me be

[Bridge]

I wonder as the morning news

I wonder when tomorrow's done

The words you never got to hear

They were just right there on the tip of my tongue

[Verse 2]

Sometimes I scare myself

By my own lies that I once bought

They cannot be resold

Sometimes I feel the hurt

If I was gold, I'd turn to sand

And in the end, it could not hold

[Pre-Chorus]

I know I've ran and I know I hide

I know I've changed, I know I lied

I knew I should but I couldn't see

Bridges burnin' in back of me

Ooh, help me out, holy ghost

I have lost my way from your road

And all, all I have left are shadows

[Chorus]

Everywhere I look, everywhere I look

I see shadows haunting over me

And I wonder when they'll let me be

[Outro]

Oh, help me out, holy ghost

I have lost the only thing I know

And all, all I have left are shadows
