Fed up, knocked down.
|
Withdrawn from everything that once was comfortable.
|
So much for routine.
|
You're weighted down, sinking.
|
Swimming against the stream that once carried you
|
home, took you to the place where you belonged.
|
I thought I heard you crying out.
|
I thought I heard you say goodbye.
|
It doesn't matter where you are,
|
your shadow is close behind.
|
|
You know your reflection doesn't lie.
|
You see a tired face through sullen, sunken eyes.
|
A portrait of regret.
|
It won't let you forget.
|
Still tangled in the net you thought you'd left behind,
|
just to find you can't run from yourself.
|
|
I thought I heard you crying out.
|
I thought I heard you say goodbye.
|
It doesn't matter where you are,
|
your shadow is close behind.
|
|
You're wearing down, but still the same.
|
Dawn to dusk..
|
Day to day.
|
You stagger on, shrouded in shame,
|
still haunted by shadows.
|
They're calling your name.
|
|
I thought I felt you reaching out.
|
Gasping just to stay alive.
|
Your shadow just gets longer as the sun falls from the sky.
