Re: Life

Your shadow walks faster than you
You don’t really know what to do - do you?
Do you think that you’re not alone?
You really think that you are immune too
Its gonna get the best of you
Its gonna lift you up and let you down

It will defeat you then teach you to get back up
After it takes all that you learn to love

Your reflection is a blur
Out of focus but in confusion
The frames are suddenly burnt
And in the end of a roll of illusion a ghost waiting its turn
Now I can see right through
It’s a warning that nobody heard

It will teach you to love what you’re afraid of
After it takes away all that you learn to love

But you don’t always have to hold to your head higher than your heart

You better hope you’re not alone

Your echo comes back out of tune
Reverb is just a room
The problem is that there’s no truth
Its fading way too soon
The shadow is on the move
And maybe you should be moving too

Before it takes away all that you learned to love
It will defeat you and then teach you to get back up

Cause you don’t always have to hold your head higher than your heart.
