Shadow Lyrics by Rory D’Lasnow

When All Is Fading

2011

[Verse 1]
I can't listen to love songs
Cause they all remind me of you
My heart will forever remain haunted
You are my one and only truth
I won't ever escape your ghost
And I can't say for sure that I would choose to
Cause baby you can burn me
But I've learned to love the flame
The only time I feel alive is when I can feel the pain

[Pre Chorus 1]
So I threw away the things we made
All the beauty of what we created
And all I'll ever be is a shadow of myself
Fate straight stared into my eyes
But fell right through my hands in time
Was I so blind to think I'd get out alive?

[Chorus]
Should have known that you never could get enough
Should have known better than to fool with love
I know baby - I know
It's all my fault - it's karma coming back again
Should have known that you never could get enough
Should have been better than the fool I was
I know baby - just go
You call me back to see how far my heart can bend

[Verse 2]
Skin and bones and nothing more
Still you lead me to the floor
And I will burn long as I'm breathing
So hard to believe it's true
Somehow I'm the same as you
Yet I'd swear that you feed off this bleeding

[Pre Chorus 2]
But somehow it would not be fair
To write you off like I don't care
You know better than to believe I've moved on
But I'm not kneeling down - no I won't cave
Your words will follow me down to my grave
But I can't let it all consume my world
Not this time - not this time

[Chorus]
Should have known that you never could get enough
Should have known better than to fool with love
I know baby - I know
It's all my fault - it's karma coming back again
Should have known that you never could get enough
Should have been better than the fool I was
I know baby - just go
You call me back to see how far my heart can bend
You call me back just to see how far my heart can bend

[Outro]
And it's only a matter of time
Til I cease to even cross your mind
Is it only a matter of time
Do I cease to even cross your mind?
