Bad Examples - Reaching for Shadows lyrics

rate me

I keep on looking where you were sleeping

I see the imprint of your body on the sheet

I keep on hidingthinking you've found me

I give you nothing and you give me borrowed time

(chorus)

Feels like I'm reaching for shadowsshadows

Looks like I'm holding on to water again

Every time I think I've figured out what we're after

I'm reaching for shadows

We say we're honestbut what do we know

We tell ourselves so many lies we think are true

And it's no secret we're more than just friends

But we're so much less than we ever really knew

Chorus

We put a label on itjust so we won't talk about it

Two masters of deception -- seeing allbut not each other

And I believe it's time we stop pretending

We're a pair of shadows... shadows...

I keep on feeling where you're not touching

I'm tired of dancing with a shadow on the wall

And if we're terrified of being lonely

Why do we struggle so hard to remain alone?

Chorus
