Running From My Shadow |
| Wanna know where I don’t go |
| When it goes from OK to a oh no |
| When it goes from hi five to a low blow |
| When it goes from all five to a solo |
| Lemme tell you what you don’t know |
| I been down / so low / I was |
| Looking for something but denying that I found it |
| There’s an elephant sitting in the room |
| And I can’t find another way to tiptoe around it |
| I been doing greater good for a long time |
| But I can’t find any other way to give now |
| I been putting myself on the sideline |
| And it’s been time so I’m saying can I live now |
| There are times when I kick myself |
| Say I’m not sick but I can’t get well |
| Say I got this while I chase my tail |
| As if they can’t tell |
| I'm running from my shadow |
| Running from my shadow but it’s still there chasing me down |
| I’ll never win the battle |
| Never win the battle and I should have known it by now |
| Just when I think I’ve found the end / ohhh |
| I’m going back around again / ohhh |
| Running from my shadow |
| Running from my shadow but it’s still there chasing me down |
| Light side’s got a dark side to it |
| Daytime flows into night like fluid |
| The yin and the yang with a curved line through it |
| And none of it’s illuminating why I do it |
| Maybe I didn’t want to chase what was not right |
| Maybe I didn’t want to face you were offsides |
| Thinking I was far away from a crossed line |
| But I was giving soft praise to a hard lie |
| There are things that you say and you don’t say |
| My tongue’s gotten real tired of me biting it |
| ‘Cause I keep on following the wrong way |
| Time’s come and I can’t keep denying it |
| There are times when I kick myself |
| Say I’m not sick but I can’t get well |
| Say I got this while I chase my tail |
| As if they can’t tell |
| I'm running from my shadow |
| Running from my shadow but it’s still there chasing me down |
| I’ll never win the battle |
| Never win the battle and I should have known it by now |
| Just when I think I’ve found the end / ohhh |
| I’m going back around again / ohhh |
| Running from my shadow |
| Running from my shadow but it’s still there chasing me down |
| I love you but I know / I gotta let you go |
| Dancing with the devil cause she’s all I’ve ever known |
| Wanted to pretend / That this time was the end |
| Sorry but I guess I gotta let you down again |
| Again |
| Again |
| Running from my shadow now my shadow is my only friend |
| Running from my shadow |
| But it’s still there chasing me down |
| Running from my shadow |
| Running from my shadow but it’s still there chasing me down |
