Have you met my better half? Built by hand, I made this mess I can't relax, it's on my back Breathing down my neck, I thought I'd left Left in the past, thought I left it for dead Thought I buried the debt long ago I'm running till I can't breathe But my shadow's catching up My shadow's catching up with me The brighter the light on me Yeah The more that I can see My shadow's catching up with me Curse the cave for all those days Made me this way, no saving grace There's no escape, end of the day Meet my mistakes, unfaced to face Left in the past, thought I left it for dead Thought I buried the debt long ago I'm I'm running till I can't breathe But my shadow's catching up My shadow's catching up with me The brighter the light on me The more that I can see My shadow's catching up with me The darkest part of myself Followed me out of my living hell A lifetime of hide-and-seek But my shadow's catching up My shadow's catching up with me Could you take me to God? Could you take out the rot That you sewed to my heels? Kinda feels like a rock And it's weighing me down And when I turn around And I see that it's taken the shape of me I'm running till I can't breathe But my shadow's catching up My shadow's catching up with me The brighter the light on me Oh, the more that I can see My shadow's catching up with me
