SHADOW SHADOW
Tinsel Life

It not like it’s the first time that I went back again
In the freezing rain in a long black overcoat
And I’m wishing, that I had gotten it right in first place
She has a way of twisting the truth around her finger

(Chorus #1)
I hide out in the crowds where you can’t see
Shadow, Shadow incessantly
I’m why you close your blinds at night
Your mom tucks you in to your covers so tightly

Holding on to what we had
Driving past your house and back again
Just see if your light’s on
Calling your house just see if it rings
A busy signal pushes me too far
Flashing my brights, I’m parked up on your lawn
And i’m honking my horn, and the stereos on
The neighbors are bitching and cops have been called

And I said: Hey? Do you remember what we had?
Do you remember how you promised me that I would never be alone?
And I said: Hey? Do you remember what you said?
‘All on our own.'

I lurk around in the dark where you can’t see
Shadow, Shadow incessantly
I’m why you close your blinds at night
Why you rush up the stairs with a tingle inside
I hide out in the dark where you can't see
Shadow, Shadow incessantly

God I wish that I believed you
I wish this was all my fault
Then I could just apologize, and we could move on past this
Then I could just get to the waiting for you to come back to me again
But there's nothing worse then relentlessly feeling
Helpless helpless

(Chorus #1)

Holding on to what we had
Driving past your work and back again
Just see if your still there
Calling your phone just see if it rings
The endless ringing pushes me too far
Flashing my brights, I’m following your car
And I’m honking my horn, the stereo’s screaming
Bumpers are bumping, sirens are blaring

Hey? Do you remember what we had?
Do you remember how you promised me that I would never be alone?
And I said: Hey? Do you remember what you said?
‘All on our own.'

I lurk around in the dark where you can’t see
Shadow, Shadow incessantly
I’m why you close your blinds at night
Why you rush up the stairs with a tingle inside
I hide out in the crowds where you can't see
Shadow, Shadow incessantly
