Oh, Shadow

Oh shadow, why do you follow me
What have I done? I know how I made you be
I don't see this earth a home, I am just a seed
Release it all to God, you are make believe
Young and powerful
Weaving lives of golden tapestry
Strung out as the hour cools
The heat from the fantasies

Instead of running from something, I'm running to you
Instead of me slumming in nothing, I've got something to prove
Instead of dreaming and numbing, I'm running right through
What's the meaning in loving? I've got nothing to lose

Where'd you go? Where's my mind?
A backdoor, creep outside
Through the fields, in the streets
Lost souls shuffling our feet
On the side of the road
In the weeds and the snow
Nights spent lying awake
Praying sail me away
The way this life takes
The way this life breaks
Nothing stops me from loving you
The way the earth quake
The way the soul shake
Nothing stops us from pulling through

Instead of running from something, I'm running to you
Instead of me slumming in nothing, I've got something to prove
instead of dreaming and numbing I'm running right through
The meaning; I ain't leaving you wanting
I've got nothing to lose

Oh shadow, Why do you call on me
What have I said? I know how I made you be
But I wanna feel at home in the company
Give it everything I have 'til I feel it free
Till I feel it free

Instead of running from something, I'm running to you
Instead of me slumming in nothing, I've got something to prove
Instead of leaving and judging were running into
The meaning; I ain't leaving you wanting
I've got nothing to lose
