Light in My Shadow Lyrics by The Rumjacks

Hestia

0

Woke up in another state with a pounding in my head
Floor covered in blood and broken glass
And I could drink to drown 'til I'm slow in the step like a dog who's had his day
But by the morn' all the words that you said keep coming back
You're the light in my shadow
You're my wayward star
You're the light in my shadow
My wayward star, my wayward star
Running around with a lump in my throat and a stagger in my stride
Just another time that I couldn't sink my pride
And I've got lock jaw from biting my tongue 3600 miles from home
20-20-24 hours to go
You're the light in my shadow
You're my wayward star
You're the light in my shadow
My wayward star, my wayward star
Talk about the time we thought that we knew what's coming next
Back to the wall with the future at your steps
We nеver had a chance at all
We listеned to the warning calls shouting out
I couldn't sleep with your words in my head so I thought that I'd walk it out
I walk along with my conscience weighing me down
And blacking out isn't doing me good so I knew what I had to do
Call you up and admit that I've been a fool
You're the light in my shadow
You're my wayward star
You're the light in my shadow
My wayward star, my wayward star
You're the light in my shadow
You're my wayward star
You're the light in my shadow
