Run From My Shadow

V5.5

[Verse 1 — Clean Emotional Vocals] I’m disappearing before I break again, Another sleepless night, another war within. These roads all know the places I’ve been, I’m trying to outrun the man I’ve lived in. I lock every door, shut out the light, Trying to keep the darkness out of sight. You keep showing up when I need to breathe, Every step I take, you’re chasing me. I don’t want another soul to drown, So I keep my distance, I leave this town. If I walk away, maybe you’ll be free… Maybe you’ll forget about me. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus — Tension Build] Every mirror shows another scar, Every mile still isn’t far. You call my name through all the noise… But I don’t have another choice. ⸻ [Chorus — Huge Sing-Along] She’s the one who’s obsessed with me, AirTag under my truck, she’s watching me. She says I’m the one doing hardcore drugs, But she’s the one who helped me get ’em. I’m running from my shadow, before it swallows you. I disappeared to save your heart, but my shadow always knows where you are. The farther that I run away, the closer all my demons stay. Ohhhhhhhhh! Leave me alone! Nooooooooow!!! ⸻ [Verse 2 — Clean Emotional Vocals] Withdrawal’s screaming louder than the rain, Trying to wash away another stain. I hate the man I used to be, But I still wear his memories. I don’t need another reason to fall, I’m barely standing through it all. If loving me means losing yourself… Please leave me here by myself. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus — Tension Build] The past keeps knocking at my door, I can’t become that man once more. You keep pulling, I keep letting go… This is all I know. ⸻ [Bridge — Screams + Breakdown] [Screamed] I’M TRYING TO SAVE YOU FROM THE FIRE! I’M TRYING TO BURY WHO I WAS! STOP DRAGGING ME BACK! LET ME BECOME SOMEONE BETTER! ⸻ [BREAKDOWN] [Explosive metalcore breakdown] [Drop C guitar chugs] [Fast double bass drums] [Gang vocals] [Huge mosh pit energy] [Chaotic guitar hits] [Screamed vocals] IF YOU REALLY LOVED ME… YOU’D LET ME HEAL! I’M RUNNING FROM MY SHADOW! BEFORE IT SWALLOWS YOU! LEAVE! ME! ALOOOOOOOONE!! ⸻ [Final Chorus — Gang Vocals + Bigger Instruments] (HEY! HEY!) She’s the one who’s obsessed with me! AirTag under my truck, she’s watching me! She says I’m the one doing hardcore drugs, But she’s the one who helped me get ’em. I’m running from my shadow, before it swallows you. I disappeared to save your heart, but my shadow always knows where you are. The farther that I run away, the closer all my demons stay. (EVERYBODY!) Run! From! My! Shadow! Run! From! My! Shadow! Ohhhhhhhhh! Leave me alone! NOOOOOOOOOOW!!! ⸻ [Outro — Emotional Clean Vocals] If I disappear… don’t come looking. If I finally change… let me become someone new. I’m running from my shadow… Before it swallows you.
