"My Name Is Shadow" lyrics
My name is shadow
Don't know how, how I got this way
So I see through, you'd see a ghost through me
Feels like average is in my DNA
It's the label I wear every day
Always the afterthought that's overlooked and misplaced
Never in focus, the blurry picture people erase
Fighting the feeling of taking up too much space
Just existing, never fitting
My name is shadow, never been enough
To make somebody stay instead of run
My name is shadow, I don't ask for much
Just wanna mean something to anyone
I was born invisible, but I still bleed
Why am I so hard to love but easy to leave?
Always in the background trying
To be someone worth not letting go
My name is shadow (my name is shadow)
Words hold no weight about the sweetest things
Insignificance in my programming (in my programming)
Wanna like myself, but the patterns speak
Too loud to change my transparency
My name is shadow, never been enough
To make somebody stay instead of run
My name is shadow, I don't ask for much
Just wanna mean something to anyone
I was born invisible, but I still bleed
Why am I so hard to love but easy to leave?
Always in the background trying
To be someone worth not letting go
My name is broken
My name is baggage
My name is goods that are way too damaged
My name is helpless
My name is shattered
My name is problems that never mattered
Always the afterthought that's overlooked and misplaced
Never in focus, the blurry picture people erase
Fighting the feeling of taking up too much space
Just existing, never fitting
My name is shadow, never been enough
To make somebody stay instead of run (instead of run)
My name is shadow, I don't ask for much
Just wanna mean something to anyone (to anyone)
I was born invisible, but I still bleed
Why am I so hard to love but easy to leave?
Always in the background trying
To be someone worth not letting go
My name is shadow
My name is shadow
Don't know how, how I got this way
So I see through, you'd see a ghost through me
Feels like average is in my DNA
It's the label I wear every day
Always the afterthought that's overlooked and misplaced
Never in focus, the blurry picture people erase
Fighting the feeling of taking up too much space
Just existing, never fitting
My name is shadow, never been enough
To make somebody stay instead of run
My name is shadow, I don't ask for much
Just wanna mean something to anyone
I was born invisible, but I still bleed
Why am I so hard to love but easy to leave?
Always in the background trying
To be someone worth not letting go
My name is shadow (my name is shadow)
Words hold no weight about the sweetest things
Insignificance in my programming (in my programming)
Wanna like myself, but the patterns speak
Too loud to change my transparency
My name is shadow, never been enough
To make somebody stay instead of run
My name is shadow, I don't ask for much
Just wanna mean something to anyone
I was born invisible, but I still bleed
Why am I so hard to love but easy to leave?
Always in the background trying
To be someone worth not letting go
My name is broken
My name is baggage
My name is goods that are way too damaged
My name is helpless
My name is shattered
My name is problems that never mattered
Always the afterthought that's overlooked and misplaced
Never in focus, the blurry picture people erase
Fighting the feeling of taking up too much space
Just existing, never fitting
My name is shadow, never been enough
To make somebody stay instead of run (instead of run)
My name is shadow, I don't ask for much
Just wanna mean something to anyone (to anyone)
I was born invisible, but I still bleed
Why am I so hard to love but easy to leave?
Always in the background trying
To be someone worth not letting go
My name is shadow
My name is shadow
