"How To Cast A Shadow" lyrics

"How To Cast A Shadow"

I told secrets, you told lies
Now you've run out of alibis
Giving warmth where I can't follow
And turned forgiveness into sorrow
I was wrong
Oh, I was wrong

I know you warned me, but caution be damned
A decision that haunts me

I always knew you could darken doorways
Still, I let you in
But how can you cast a shadow through a doorway
When the light's gone dim?
From within

You've burned this house of cards I've known
And then called the ashes home
Emptiness until I'm hollow
All that's left is just a shadow
Almost gone
Oh, almost gone

Drawing each breath as if it were my last
I step out of the darkness

I always knew you could darken doorways
Still, I let you in
But how can you cast a shadow through a doorway
When the light's gone dim?
From within
From within

I always knew you could darken doorways
Still, I let you in
But how can you cast a shadow through a doorway
When the light's gone dim?
From within
The dark remains
From within
The dark remains
I knew you darkened doorways
I knew you darkened doorways
The dark remains
I knew you darkened doorways, and
The dark remains

That's how you cast a shadow
And that's how you cast a shadow
That's how you cast a shadow
