Booked a trip to Texas, thought I'd start again
Switched out my addresses and ghosted all my friends
Thought I could escape what I could not transcend
Found myself back in the same old place again
* Everywhere I go, my shadow, it follows behind
Doesn't matter where I travel, my shadow, it finds me
Something that I've come to realize after all this time
I can't escape my shadow, I can't escape my shadow
Maybe I'm the nexus, the common thread that binds
The problems in my head and the world that lives outside
I thought I could escape, but it's fate I've come to find My devil is the devil that's inside
( * )
It won't ever let me go It goes everywhere I go
It won't ever let me go This shadow, this shadow of mine (Of mine)
We grapple, we battle, but we Are shackled for eternity
We grapple, we battle We're shackled, we're shackled, we're shackled
( * )
It won't ever let me go It goes everywhere I go
It won't ever let me go This shadow, this shadow of mine (Of mine)
