Your shadow walks faster than you
You don’t really know what to do
Do you think that you’re not alone?
You really think that you’re immune to it
It’s going to get the best of you
It’s going to lift you up then let you down

It will defeat you
Then teach you to get back up
After it takes away
All that you learned to love

Your reflection is a blur
Out of focus but in confusion
The frames the sun did burn
At the end of a roll of delusions
A ghost waiting its turn
And now I can see right through it
It’s a warning that nobody heard

It will teach you
To love what you’re afraid of
After it takes away
All that you’ve learned to love
