Chasing Shadows

Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows

I only see my shadows
In the dark
I must admit that they're
A work of art
And I could try to paint them over
With a smile
But I say fuck it and I wear my pain
In style

Gotta get it in my head
That I was never innocent
And I'm the culprit of my demons
If I'm angry I'm the reason

Ask myself all the hard questions
For the sake of authentic expression
I have a dark side full of confessions
It's overflowed from all this suppression

Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows

I never knew my true self was buried about to explode
I never knew how badly I needed to chase my shadows

Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows

I start to see my shadows
In the light
I must admit it's not
A pretty sight
And I could try to put up a fight
And I know I could run but I couldn't hide

I'm the root of all my problems
I'm the only one to solve em
I'm the warden of my prison
I'm the blind one to my vision

Ask myself all the hard questions
For the sake of authentic expression
I have a dark side full of confessions
It's overflowed from all this suppression

Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows

I never knew the extent to which I had to grow
I guess I'm glad I decided to chase my shadows

Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows

Getting even closer to the light
Then I see there's another battle to left fight
And I could turn around and admit my defeat
But I will not let my fearful ego deceive

I'm the judge of my own trial
Drowning in my own denial
I'm the monster under my bed
The oppressor of my success

Ask myself all the hard questions
For the sake of authentic expression
I have a dark side full of confessions
It's overflowed from all this suppression

Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows

I never saw all the changes that I had to undergo
I'm out of breath from chasing all my shadows

Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows
Chasing shadows

Chasing shadows, chasing shadows
