Shadow

I wish you'd see it in my face But I'm caught up in those long lost days And how can I even make you see When I don't even know me

Following my footsteps home This time I'm walking all alone Trying hard to be someone I don't even know

I feel like a shadow Walking behind who you think I am Just like my shadow Wanting to see the sun again I'm your shadow And I'm lost Just like my shadow

Thought I'd like me bright and new But my candle burned out long before you Now I'm the one whose got to pay I'm finding me a better day

Following my footsteps home This time I'm walking all alone Trying to be someone I dont even know

I feel like a shadow Walking behind who you think I am Just like my shadow Wanting to see the sun again I'm your shadow And I'm lost Just like my shadow

Sun light is my life I can hardly comprehend Sun light is my life I cannot understand

I feel like a shadow Walking behind who you think I am Just like my shadow Wanting to see the sun again I'm your shadow And I'm lost Just like my shadow

**This is about being something that someone else wants you to be but you eventually realize that you don't even know who you are anymore. You thought that you'd like who you've become but you don't and you're trying to find yourself again. When you're by yourself, you realize that you're so caught up in this other self and you're confused of why you've let yourself get so far gone...

I agree with guitarfreak on the meaning. I think it's a lovely song. When I put on this song I just have to sing along! I can kind of relate to the song as well, because I always try to please everyone else and stuff...
