SHADOWS

I’m waking up this morning
Feeling pretty still
I never knew that I would feel like I could kill
A beam of light disturbing
My eyes are feeling numb
Hoping that I get the chance to tell you I was dumb
I made a big mistake
But I guess that is life
I woke up not remembering where I got this bloody knife

Staring out my window
I see cars passing by
My house looks like a mess and all I do is asking why
I’ve got these hidden feelings
Hiding in my brain
To live a thankful life and maybe I should jump the train
There’s no one more suspicious than I am at this point
The only thing that I wish is to tell myself I’m found

My heart is beating double time and I can’t figure out
What I love most about my home’s how silent I can shout
I’m seeing all our pictures hanging on the wall
Have a nice day honey ’cause I feel like I will fall
With you I used to laugh and see a perfect smile
But all of this is over now
I’ll savour your goodbye
Yeah with you I used to laugh and see a perfect smile
But all of this is over now
I give my final bow
