Shadow Boxing Lyrics by Extreme

Waiting for the Punchline

0

Last round
Looks like I'm in for a fight
Knocked down
There is nowhere left to hide

Stick and move
When I try to run away
Old one two
I only stand up face to face

Mirror, mirror
It's getting clearer

It's just me and my shadow
Dancin' 'round the ring
I try to fight it but then how can I win
When I'm only shadow boxing

Time out
Looking for a standing eight
No doubt, yeah
My inside has come out to play

Bob and weave
It's conscious of my every move
Been deceived
Can no longer ignore the truth

Mirror, mirror
It's getting clearer
Split decisions
Blurs my vision

It's just me and my shadow
Dancin' 'round the ring
I try to fight it but then how can I win
When I'm only shadow boxing
When I'm only shadow boxing, yeah

It's just me and my shadow
Dancin' 'round the ring
I try to fight it but how can I win
When I'm only shadow boxing
When I'm only shadow boxing
Yeah, I'm only
