Chasing Shadows Lyrics by NerdOut

Year 2

2017

[Verse 1]
Our world has so many secrets
Buried beneath memories
They have the answers you're seeking
Kept hidden for centuries

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you tell me nothing is true
I know everything is real
Everything is real in my head

[Chorus]
Break all the rules that you're making
We are the shadow you're chasing
Oh, whoa, oh (Oh, whoa, oh)
Oh, whoa oh-oh (Oh, whoa oh-oh)
Rise up the walls that we're scaling
Savor the breath that you're taking
Oh, whoa, oh (Oh, whoa, oh)
Oh, whoa oh-oh (Oh, whoa oh-oh)

[Verse 2]
Maybe our greed is our weakness
Some things are best left unknown
Just don't abuse your own freedom
'Cause you must reap what you sow, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you tell me nothing is true
But I know everything is real
Everything is real in my head

[Chorus]
Break all the rules that you're making
We are the shadow you're chasing
Oh, whoa, oh (Oh, whoa, oh)
Oh, whoa oh-oh (Oh, whoa oh-oh)
Rise up the walls that we're scaling
Savor the breath that you're taking
Oh, whoa, oh (Oh, whoa, oh)
Oh, whoa oh-oh (Oh, whoa oh-oh)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, whoa, oh (Oh, whoa, oh)
Oh, whoa oh-oh (Oh, whoa oh-oh)

[Bridge]
Oh, whoa, oh (Oh, whoa, oh)
Oh, whoa oh-oh (Oh, whoa oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you tell me nothing is true
But I know everything is real
Everything is real in my head (In my head, in my head)

[Chorus]
Break all the rules that you're making
We are the shadow you're chasing
Oh, whoa, oh (Oh, whoa, oh)
Oh, whoa oh-oh (Oh, whoa oh-oh)
Rise up the walls that we're scaling
Savor the breath that you're taking
Oh, whoa, oh (Oh, whoa, oh)
Oh, whoa oh-oh (Oh, whoa oh-oh)

[Outro]
Oh, you tell me nothing is true
But I know everything is real
Oh, whoa, oh (Oh, whoa, oh)
Everything is real in my head
Oh, whoa oh-oh (Oh, whoa oh-oh)
