Shadow Of Mine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Booked a trip to Texas, thought I'd start again
Switched out my addresses and ghosted all my friends
Thought I could escape what I could not transcend
Found myself back in the same old place again
Everywhere I go, my shadow, it follows behind
Doesn't matter where I travel, my shadow, it finds me
Something that I've come to realize after all this time
I can't escape my shadow, I can't escape my shadow
Maybe I'm the nexus, the common threat that binds
The problems in my head and thе world that lives outside
I thought I could escape, but it's fatе I've come to find
My devil is the devil that's inside
Everywhere I go, my shadow, it follows behind
Doesn't matter where I travel, my shadow, it finds me
Something that I've come to realize after all this time
I can't escape my shadow, I can't escape my shadow
It won't ever let me go
It goes everywhere I go
It won't ever let me go
This shadow, this shadow of mine (of mine)
We grapple, we battle, but we
Are shackled for eternity
We grapple, we battle
We're shackled, we're shackled, we're shackled
Everywhere I go, my shadow, it follows behind
Doesn't matter where I travel, my shadow, it finds me
Something that I've come to realize after all this time
I can't escape my shadow, I can't escape my shadow
It won't ever let me go
It goes everywhere I go
It won't ever let me go
This shadow, this shadow of mine (of mine)
