Shadow

(album: Illinois - 2015)

I got a shadow and it follows me around
Wherever I go, it moves without a sound
My alter ego, that hunts me down and gets me
Finds a way to trick me
Then drowns me in the whiskey
Hold up, I need some help
The more you feed the beast, the more he raises hell
I know, I got a problem
But you know what they say
Smoke 'em if you got 'em

[Chorus:]
Feeling good
Probably better than I should
It's gone too far
I'm standing up here dancing on the bar
There's no denying
He came uninvited
But I kinda like him, oh no

Find me a preacher, I'm down on my knees
I need a leader to break these chains off of me
Don't let 'em hurt me, I'm getting kind of worried
Vision's getting blurry, please, somebody hurry

[Chorus]

Pretty little angel, whisper in my ear
Please just make him disappear
I don't know if I can take no more

[Chorus]

Gotta wait for that sun to go down
He's following me around
But it gets worse at night
Alright, give me another drink, C'mon
