shadow Lyrics

I have this fear that my past mistakes are coming to haunt me

And can't shake the feeling that all my friends don't really want me

I can't tell the difference between my intuition or my crippling anxiety

People always leaving, I've got used to disappearing, maybe that'd be good for me

'Cause no one really gets me

I've spent half a life pretending

I formed meaningful connections

I'm a master at deception

I'm a shadow

I'm a shadow

I don't get attached anymore cause I've grown to learn the pattern

The strangers I recognize are all of the ones that mattered

Going to sleep haunted and waking up exhausted with thoughts racing through my head

Some days I consider forgetting what's familiar and never getting out of bed

No one really knows me

Their opinions still control me

I'm a victim of myself

Think I really need some help

I'm a shadow

I'm a shadow

I'm a shadow

And you'd never know

'Cause I come and go

I'm black and white like my thinking

I was the place I was needing

But I couldn't give myself peace and

Had to go destroy every feeling

Keep breathing

Keep breathing

Keep breathing

Keep breathing

Keep breathing

I'm a shadow

I'm a shadow

I'm a shadow

And you'd never know

'Cause I come and go
