Shadow Lyrics by The Rocket (BE)

Another Reason Not to Fear the Sky

2018

[Intro: Justin Courtney Pierre]
Why won’t this nightmare ever end?
All I wanna do is wake up and stop pretending

[Verse: Tom De Ridder]
So it seems there’s a reason to breathe
I let my heart grow hollow
Down and back due to friendly attacks
But I’m scared of what might follow

[Verse: Tom De Ridder]
While I never make a single move
For fear of what might not come true
I’ll settle for a little less disaster
But I can’t afford the luxury
Of sitting still while everything around me
Only drives the cycle faster

[Chorus: Justin Courtney Pierre]
Why won’t this nightmare ever end?
All I wanna do is wake up and stop pretending
Everything I threw away was never gonna help me anyhow
Why won’t this nightmare ever end?

[Verse: Tom De Ridder]
Every day darkens more than the last
I’m casting only shadow
I gotta give it away to someone else to break

I’m sick of all this give and take
Inside my head there’s nowhere to run to
But I’m trying to break through

[Chorus: Justin Courtney Pierre]
Why won’t this nightmare ever end?
All I wanna do is wake up and stop pretending
Everything I threw away was never gonna help me anyhow
Why won’t this nightmare ever end?

[Bridge: Justin Courtney Pierre & Tom De Ridder]
Can’t get around it
S-stuttering
The process got me down
I get down
I keep my secrets down

Can’t get around it
S-stuttering
The process got me down
I get down
I keep my secrets down

[Chorus: Justin Courtney Pierre]
Why won’t this nightmare ever end?
All I wanna do is wake up, just wake up

Why won’t this nightmare ever end?
All I wanna do is wake up and stop pretending
Everything I threw away was never gonna help me anyhow
Why won’t this nightmare ever end?

Will the nightmare ever end?
