I think this is about Tom\'s chase for aliens. He tries to make it into a love song with an alternative meaning to make it more relatable to the average person, but ultimately about his alien related pursuits. \n\n"So here I am\nI\'m falling to my knees\nI\'m digging out the shadows of a ghost\nWhen you come around\nSo here I am\nI\'m waiting for the tease\nI\'m sleeping in the gallows (?) that I chose\nWhen you come around"\n\nAka- he\'s chasing for proof of aliens and it\'s breaking him because its very challenging and taboo. He is waiting for when he eventually has the proof he needs (or enough proof) and can properly release it. However he receives a lot of flack for putting his music and art on the back burner to pursue aliens.\n\nAlso Chasing Shadows is the title of his first "Sekret Machines" series book; suggesting there is a different meaning behind the lyrics
