First Came Their Shadows

歌詞

Yes, you can take that to heart It was meant to sit close to the bone anyway You can make it a big issue Make it a battle of your own and that's ok You can feign a distant familiarity You say you understand the similarity You think you see me with great clarity But you're acting me, not necessarily (not sure about that one) Only if you steal my shadow, will you truly know Yes, you can call that a start It was meant to begin kind of slow anyway Yes, your deceit is an art (could also be "your deceit isn't odd") I knew you would sink kind of low anyway You say you have the best intentions You fill me with fickle suggestions Logic is fired by inventions But your concern is much more than you mention Only if you steal my shadow, will you truly know You say you're in my situation You say you've been confused by my complication You think my soul makes negotiation But you don't see my hesitation Only if you steal my shadow, will you truly know
