SHADOWS

[Verse 1]

I could spend a lifetime looking for something

Waiting for the one, but it's never coming

Miles and miles, but I can't stop running, can't stop running

'Cause when I'm at my best, I just see imperfections

Counting up my debts, never counting my blessings

Always out of reach, but it's right there in front of me

Right there in front of me, am I always gonna be

[Chorus]

Chasing my shadow?

Chasing my shadow

[Verse 2]

Drinking on my back porch, dreaming we'll get out

Scuffing up my white Vans, sneak out of your house

Just a couple kids tryna figure it all out

Acting reckless and stupid like life is a movie

Okay, now it's fast-forward, stick to the program

Stickers on my passport, New York to London

Seen the Eiffel Tower through a telescope

Watched a car crash, and a homeless man, he said

"What do you know?" Well, what do I know?

[Chorus]

Chasing my shadow

Chasing my shadow

Wherever I run, wherever I go

When will I ever stop wanting more?

Chasing my shadow

[Bridge]

Power lines through the city

And Bowery looks so pretty

How far I've come, how far I've gotta go

And, oh, the irony is killing me, it's killing me

As soon as I get what I wanted before

It's not what I want anymore

[Chorus]

I'm chasing my shadow

Chasing my shadow (Chasing my)

Wherever I run, wherever I go

Oh, when will I ever stop wanting more?

Chasing my shadow (My shadow)

[Outro]

Chasing my shadow

Chasing my shadow
