Shadow - Tempus Canvas

Even in the Dark

7. Shadow - by: Paint The Cave

I don't know what to say, I don't know what to do

Now that my own advice is haunting me

I need someone else to talk to

This bottle doesn't work; all it does is glisten

Drains and leaves me in the shadows

Where there's no one else to listen

It's like I'm out of breath, sinking in an ocean

Time is slowly washing off all

The stains of my emotions

_

Why are you still hanging around?

And why are you still in my mirror?

Why can I still see your shadow?

Even in the dark

I thought that I had made it clear

That I could make it on my own

_

I thought that I had made it clear

That I could make it on my own

_

Why are you still hanging around?

And why are you still in my mirror?

Why can I still see your shadow?

Even in the dark?

I thought that I had made it clear

That I could make it on my own
