the noncents - shadows lyrics

[verse 1: detz]
i’ve known you from my first memory
parents saying we were meant to be
i told you in my heart there would never be
room for another until the end of me
empty promises i could never keep
nevertheless you spent your energy
making a better me, befriended me
even when i neglected you like an enemy
but i was young then
i just wanted to play in the sun then
this unexpected something, came from nothing
expecting something from me, at just ten
was i to suspend, an abundance of wonderful fun
sweep it under the rug, or worse, throw it in the dust bin?
looking back now, i was wrong
you just wanted in the song, just to sing along
not to k!ll the music, just to be included, to belong
i was foolish, bullish, too stupid to loosen my exclusion of you
due these oodles of hubris that grew with exuberance very strong
so i went through the motions
a boat on the open ocean
emotionless, holding a stethoscope to my chest and hoping
i’d open up
but every time i spoke it was a promise broken
i thought it comical like i was joking but honestly we were choking

[chorus]
i wait in the shadows, the shadows
as the world turns its back on the sun
for tomorrow i’m going to fly west with the fools
but by morning my day has begun

[verse 2: detz]
in high school i made amends
i confess it messed with my head
because i paid a tenth of the attention
that i should have spent when i was 10
i started noticing you were heaven sent
no longer hesitant with the intention of having you present even when i was with my friends
then you ended it, or maybe i pretended it was your fault
cause i was questioning with more thoughts
on whether my feelings were more false than fact
when the fact is it wasn’t your loss
it was mine, it opened up my eyes, and rid my corneas of more fog
i was blind, but i realized i would give my lungs, tongue, thumbs and my pride
just to be by your side
so let’s go for another ride, on my merry-go-round another time
i say sorry a couple dozen times, and you say you never lied

[chorus] (x2)

[bridge: kake]
you don’t need this relationship
it’s a waste, you need to erase it
this behavior is the razor shaving you, shaping you
making you think it’s your savior
you need to escape
cause you’re facing a socially endangering mistake that will take first place in the race of your life
then leave you hastily with only disgrace to replace it

[verse 3: detz]
we were doing well until college
and i didn’t want to acknowledge
that we had started growing so apart and
i was paying homage to the liquor bottle
you were staying honest like the christian motto
and i was distant i know
but i was getting sick from spinning in an infinite spiral
when i wasn’t sitting in cl-ss, i was at practice
and when i wasn’t at practice i was scribbling math on a tablet
or p-ssed out on my mattress
and who? you? ha you were the back of my p-ssion list
cause i was p-ssionless and that’s what left
you and me, interactionless
but that was all me, you would call me
i would always, have an excuse i’m sorry
but i was fried like calamari
cause i couldn’t achieve, what i wanted to achieve
when i couldn’t even sleep, eat or breath
without you freaking pleading for me to speak
but i didn’t see you fighting
the uninvited feeling, of an unrequited
love, cause i wasn’t humble enough
to unbundle these cuffs
everything i had was nothing and it wasn’t enough
it was tough, not to succ-mb to some of this utterly dumb stuff
that i was wanting to put you under but ugh
in actuality you feel bad for me, cause i am weak
and i am feeble, and evil and i will never be your equal
but you see i’m always going to need you
and although i can’t precede you
when i’m gone i know i’m gonna meet you
for the sequel

[chorus] (x2)
