Where Shadows Lie Lyrics
you made my heart your home
so i snuck up on the rooftop
to peer down at you
through the skylight
to find that you were setting fires
who sets fire to their own home?
my chest is burning
but i am not the one pointing fingers
not making accusations
it is the last day of summer and i am standing alone
only this time it is cold and it is two years later
i see everything in a thousand shades of red
now that the scales have fallen from my eyes
you fan the flames
every time there is silence
you fan the flames
with departure
only you can put me out
so you put me out
i am falling down
still burning from the inside
and i see you right there by my side
you will see this time
so i put you out
so i snuck up on the rooftop
to peer down at you
through the skylight
to find that you were setting fires
who sets fire to their own home?
my chest is burning
but i am not the one pointing fingers
not making accusations
it is the last day of summer and i am standing alone
only this time it is cold and it is two years later
i see everything in a thousand shades of red
now that the scales have fallen from my eyes
you fan the flames
every time there is silence
you fan the flames
with departure
only you can put me out
so you put me out
i am falling down
still burning from the inside
and i see you right there by my side
you will see this time
so i put you out

mm. i enjoy this bands style, just unique enough to stand out from the rest of the poppunk scene
I saw em last night.. not all that great live. Good, but not great.
this is my favorite song
gatsby's is a great band. they're so original and they have such great lyrics. this song and why we fight are my favorites by them. nicarockya too.
No shit, they should hit the West Coast soon.
they are from the west coast, washington, so im guessing by west coast you mean californina and they will be in california in may
such a good band. different the the normal breed
i disagre with emo-a-kid. i saw them live last night and they were awesome. this song is my favorite.
I hafta say, I saw these guys live a while ago, and they are fucking amazing you should be privelledged to see such a fabulous band... Nic is incredible
gatsbys has to be one of the top five bands i've ever seen live, and i've seen a ton. they can get someone who had never heard them before jumping up and down, and theyre just flat out amazing if you know their stuff. A+ for GAD
