Lanie Gardner - Shadows Lyrics

Lanie Gardner Lyrics

"Shadows"

So your colors they don't tend to shine so well
Aren't we a little scared to be ourselves?
Running from reality
Lost in who we're trying to be
Mirror still in pieces
A million reasons
All they see is

Shadows of the night
Imaging those we think who've got it right
Idolizing him
Trying to be like her
Conform or be condemned
I don't know what's worse
As shadows of the night
Hiding from the light

Spend our lives trying to change who we are
In the end we find we didn't have to try so hard
Lost in the dark looking for love
Always never good enough
Mirror still in pieces
A million reasons
All they see is

Shadows of the night
Imaging those we think who've got it right
Idolizing him
Trying to be like her
Conform or be condemned
I don't know what's worse
As shadows of the night
Hiding from the light

Shadows of the night
Imaging those we think who've got it right
Idolizing him
Trying to be like her
Conform or be condemned
I don't know what's worse
As shadows of the night
Hiding from the light
From the light
