Chasing Shadows Lyrics

Chasing Shadows

Eighteen and a wicker basket
Red cape and an open casket
Tied up to a broken lever
If I move, it hurts forever
I am not that host, but I want her
Wolf in a winter playground
White snow to let the red out
I hear that alarms are better
That a warning, like a feather
I don't like my tone, but I want her

So here I am
I'm falling to my knees
I'm digging at the shadows of a ghost
When you come around
So here I am
I'm waiting for the tease
I'm sleeping in the gallows that I chose
When you come around
Why sleep, I can't forget it
Moon rise, I'm now committed
Your move 'cause I am tethered
Like a slave, I don't know better
I listen for your words, yeah I want her
Lost boys in a haunted forest
Bright things in the maze before us
My life has now been severed
I can't bear to remember
Who I was before the day I met her

So here I am
I'm falling to my knees
I'm digging at the shadows of a ghost
When you come around
So here I am
I'm waiting for the tease
I'm sleeping in the gallows that I chose
When you come around
