Shadow in the Room

You can tell your Mother
You can tell your Father too
I give you my permission baby
Tell em' I'm in love with you
But if it's any consolation
I'll just tell them the truth
Of what you've been doing lately
Oh when you're not at school

You used to say that you want me
Now you say you don't even need me

You can try to hide your past
Or cover up your tracks girl
If you get caught up in the future
Just know I won't take you back
It's not that I stopped loving you
Oh you stopped loving yourself
I was a fool to chase you then
And let you throw me on the shelf

You used to say that you want me
And now you say you don't even need me

Well there's a Shadow in this room, and I know it's not your's
You better tell me right now, is there a man hidden behind that door?
Well don't toss this aside, as something else to ignore
Oh but now you've gone back, on every single word you swore

Go on and tell your Mother
You can tell your Father too
I give you my permission baby
Tell em' I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
And if it's any consolation
I'll just tell them the truth
Of what you've been doing lately
Oh when you're not at school

You used to say that you want me
And now you say you don't even need me

Well there's a Shadow in this room, and I know it's not your's
You better tell me right now, is there a man hidden behind your door?
Well don't toss this aside, as something else to ignore
Oh but now you've gone back, on every single word you swore
