Shadows of Your Life
What is the point of attempt?
Give me a metaphor
Cause I've been here before
And I've been playing dead
Watching my ghost
Throwing roses on my corpse
Oh, death is just a feel
You're a mouth that gnaws and swallows up. Yeah, you only keep a taste
Of what you've ruined and then you pass on its remains to acid and
There's not a locked door in this town,
And I would love to stick around
But I don't know
Cause there's a place for me in the dark
In the shadows of your life
Where all our hopes collide
Till you fall apart
I am sure that you exist, but you don't seem that convinced
You have been sold a dream you cannot live
Stand in the sun for everyone
With our pockets so empty
And once its shot you just cannot
Outrun the bullet
You die before you know
Nothing that ties you here or that binds me there
All that's left of us falls in disrepair
You gotta to trade your youth for something
But it's not easy to accept
That it might have been the wrong thing
And now you learn to adapt
But guys like you don't break, they shatter
You better learn to adapt
Give me a metaphor
Cause I've been here before
And I've been playing dead
Watching my ghost
Throwing roses on my corpse
Oh, death is just a feel
You're a mouth that gnaws and swallows up. Yeah, you only keep a taste
Of what you've ruined and then you pass on its remains to acid and
There's not a locked door in this town,
And I would love to stick around
But I don't know
Cause there's a place for me in the dark
In the shadows of your life
Where all our hopes collide
Till you fall apart
I am sure that you exist, but you don't seem that convinced
You have been sold a dream you cannot live
Stand in the sun for everyone
With our pockets so empty
And once its shot you just cannot
Outrun the bullet
You die before you know
Nothing that ties you here or that binds me there
All that's left of us falls in disrepair
You gotta to trade your youth for something
But it's not easy to accept
That it might have been the wrong thing
And now you learn to adapt
But guys like you don't break, they shatter
You better learn to adapt
