Shadow Songtext
von Erin Costelo

You were crazy, crazy for it
And I showed mercy, and I ignored it
Now you′re running this town like you're running your mouth
I′m busy running away
'Cause a shadow cannot hide a memory
I was caught in the wind, like a breath in a bubble
That would burst if I spoke and caused any trouble
And the lies that I told through omission
Ambition has forced me to see
That a shadow cannot hide a memory

You're at the top, at the top of the mountain
And I′m looking up, barely making a sound when I′m sounding
And the brothers are patting the backs of the boys on the scene
And a shadow cannot hide a memory


You were everywhere, still calling me sweet pea
Even when you aren't here, still another is staring at me
And I cannot unknow what I know, even when I know it′s a dream
Still a shadow cannot hide a memory

So here we go, let the heads roll
Here we go, let the heads roll
Let the heads roll and let the bodies be free
'Cause a shadow cannot hide a memory

So I said it, I said it quiet at first
Then it grew like an orchestra swell
Like a yell, like a mother gives birth
And the women all said they knew, and the others said "Quiet, please"
And a shadow cannot hide a memory

Is there a moral? Did I find glory?
Well, like a cancer spreads, so does a story
And the others, they grew in their numbers like roots of a tree
And a shadow cannot hide a memory

And a shadow cannot hide a memory
Still a shadow cannot hide a memory
