Shadow of a Soul

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.

Anywhere I go, anything I try

Anyone I love is compromised

Everyone I see, staring on back at me

Why can't you let me be

Ohhh, so far from home

being shallow and alone

and why can't you see

its tearing away what I used to be

I'm a shadow of a soul

I don't know how to run

I don't know where to hide.

The old me is dead and gone inside

What will you think of me

when all that you'll ever see

is only a part of the other me.

Ohhh, so far from home

being shallow and alone

and why can't you see

its tearing away what I used to be

I'm a shadow of a soul

Ohhh, I'm so far from home

being shallow and alone

and why can't you see

its tearing away what I used to be

I'm a shadow of a soul

You can tear away the layyers on the outside

But what lies underneath you'll never find

Too many people take it up on my faith

Too many faces pressing up against my face

Ohhh, so far from home

being shallow and alone

and why can't you see

its tearing away what I used to be

I'm a shadow of a soul

Ohhh, so far from home

being shallow and alone

and why can't you see

its tearing away what I used to be

I'm a shadow of a soul

Ohh, I'm so far from home

I'm a shadow of a soul

Ohh, I'm so far from home

I'm a shadow of a soul

Ohh, I'm so far from home

I'm a shadow of a soul

Ohh, I'm so far from home

I'm a shadow of a soul
