Just A Shadow Songtext
It went so well for youWith a place right where you wanted and the ones to fill it toBut some blows break the spellThat it hits you every day until you need to hit as wellIt's just a shadow of the man you should beLike a garden in the forest that the world will never seeYou have no thought of answers only questions to be filledAnd it feels like hellIt all seemed fine for youTill the struggle of ambitino turned in violence upon youSometimes a landslide comesIf you're hiding in that avalanche you need a place to runIt's just a shadow of the woman you should beLike a garden in the forest that the world will never seeAnd you have no thought of answers only questions to be filledAnd it feels like hellI know there is no need for what's been doneI know there is enough for everyoneFrustration brings a heavy hand to bearAnd there's never been a handDid we ever have it goodWhile we lived in Eldorado did we find the gold we shouldIf it really was the truthWhy are faces filled with anger that should only shine with youthIt's just a shadow of the people we should beLike a garden in the forest that the world will never seeYou have no thought of answers only questions to be filledAnd it feels like hellI know there is no need for what's been doneI know there is enough for everyoneFrustration brings a heavy hand to bearAnd there never is a hand outside that caresStill the promise comes of living fit for allIf we only get our back against the wallI look at backs that pushed the wall for yearsScarred by many knives and too much fear
