I write a LOT of songs. On another site, I've posted 9 songs. They get better as they go along. The first one is kind of...meh....but here.
Shadow
You took me up, you broke me down
The hardest thing I've ever found
Was to be handled by unwary hands
Not to fly again
My voice was cracked, my eyes were teared
It's what I have always feared
I'm not myself anymore
Now I'm saying to my other self, "Please don't go!"
Now I'm just a shadow
Walking on the street
Hands in my pockets, wearing a locket
Of a certain memory to come
I looked up, yeah, to the sky,
And asked it why,
Why I'm just a shadow now!
Oh! Why I'm just a shadow now!
Oh-Oh!
The rain was falling, my feet will fly
Now I know that this is good bye
My wings have sprouted, I'm going
Away
The sky was Grey, my expression the same
A tear had just dropped down my face
I'm not myself anymore
Now I'm begging to my other self: "Please don't go!"
Now I'm just a shadow
Walking on the street
Hands in my pockets, wearing a locket
Of a certain memory to come
I looked up, yeah, to the sky,
And asked it why,
Why I'm just a shadow now!
Oh! Why I'm just a shadow now!
Oh-Oh!
It's the clouds!
That were blocking out the light!
My shadow!
Just waiting to break out!
Take time!
To take in all your fears!
Realize!---------
That everything just lays here!
Now I'm just a shadow
Walking on the street
Hands in my pockets, wearing a locket
Of a certain memory to come
I looked up, yeah, to the sky,
And asked it why,
Why I'm just a shadow now!
Oh! Why I'm just a shadow now!
Oh-Oh!
Cause now I'm just a shadow! (x4)
Now I'm just a shadow
Walking on the street
Hands in my pockets, wearing a locket
Of a certain memory to come
I looked up, yeah, to the sky,
And asked it why,
Why I'm just a shadow now!
Oh! Why I'm just a shadow now!
Oh-Oh!
Oh.....
