The Model Lyrics

I know

I have been told

And what if I won't live in shadow

In shadow

Yes I know

I have been told

I have been told

Striking out alone

With fire in your bones

And a view to kill the quiet

Because something happened then

That could come around again

But what if you refuse to buy it

And I'm sorry that you feel that this is your lot

But you'll have to live it on without me

And I'll love you all the more

But I want you to be sure

That you won't have to worry about me

Yes I know

I have been told

And what if I won't live in shadow

In shadow

Yes I know

I have been told

I have been told

I know

I have been told

And what if I refuse to live in

In shadow

Oh I know

I have been told

I have been told

When it comes around

Close your eyes and take it down

But don't act like you didn't choose to

Because we did the best we can

In the absence of a man

But non-attendance can confuse you

It's a sentence that was handed down from long ago

But what if I refuse to take it

And what if I refuse

To accept the news

That this is the model from now on

Oh I know

I have been told

And what if I won't live in shadow

In shadow

Yes I know

I have been told

I have been told

Oh I know

I have been told

And what if I refuse to live in

In shadow

Yes I know

I have been told

I have been told

It's a sentence that was handed down from long ago

But what if I refuse
