Dear Shadow
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
The first day that we met
I saw you out of the corner of my eye, I was five
You're still the thumb that I'm under
You're still the thumb that I'm under
Oh, I hid you away, pushing you down
You left me caught between a light and a dark place
I'm going to ground (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)
When out looking for love, three is a crowd
We'd always lose our way between the black ('ween the black) and the grey (and the grey)
I've been lonely, keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
But you're holding me back, yeah, you'rе holding me back
I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking evеry shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again?
Yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo
Yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo
On the wall, I was ten
You were more than a feeling
By my side, unwanted
The sun would see you come creeping
Made of fear, I was strong
There's no shame to have you here where you belong
I've been lonely, keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
But you're holding me back, yeah, you're holding me back
I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking every shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again?
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la (yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo)
La-la-la-la-la-la (yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo)
La-la-la-la-la (yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo)
I've been lonely, keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
I see it's only me needing you back there behind me
In my soul, I feel like maybe we'll be friends
But you're holding me back, yeah, you're holding me back
And I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking every shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again?
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
The first day that we met
I saw you out of the corner of my eye, I was five
You're still the thumb that I'm under
You're still the thumb that I'm under
Oh, I hid you away, pushing you down
You left me caught between a light and a dark place
I'm going to ground (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)
When out looking for love, three is a crowd
We'd always lose our way between the black ('ween the black) and the grey (and the grey)
I've been lonely, keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
But you're holding me back, yeah, you'rе holding me back
I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking evеry shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again?
Yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo
Yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo
On the wall, I was ten
You were more than a feeling

There's no shame to have you here where you belong

But you're holding me back, yeah, you're holding me back
I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking every shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again?
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la (yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo)
La-la-la-la-la-la (yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo)
La-la-la-la-la (yeah-yo-yeah-oh, yo-yo)
I've been lonely, keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
I see it's only me needing you back there behind me
In my soul, I feel like maybe we'll be friends
But you're holding me back, yeah, you're holding me back
And I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking every shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again?
