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Withdrawn from everything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
