Shadow

(الألبوم: Clouds - 2022)

There's a shadow falling around me
Hiding in the light of day
I don't know how it found me
But it knows me in a wicked way
Drives me like a Chevrolet

Now my voice doesn't sound like it used to
When the world was just a one-horse town
Maybe that's an excuse to keep me
Guarded while I run around
So I never live it down
Dissolve before I drown

But the days got short
And the nights wore on
Words came out
But they all felt wrong
I didn't know it but I needed it all along
The pain is just a part of me

These days I feel like a stranger
Wear my laughter like a bad disguise
Oh but everybody knows I'm in danger
They can see it in my eyes
In the harsh light of surprise
When the tenderness subsides

Maybe I was born
When the past me died
So the songs I sing
Never sound like mine
I didn't know it but I needed it every time
The pain is just a part of me

There's a shadow falling around me
Hiding in the light of day
I don't know how it found me
But it knows me in a wicked way
