Reaching For Shadows Lyrics - Bad Examples

I keep on looking where you were sleeping 

I see the imprint of your body on the sheet 

I keep on hiding, thinking you've found me 

I give you nothing and you give me borrowed time 

(chorus) 

Feels like I'm reaching for shadows, shadows 

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 honest, but 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 it, just so we won't talk about it 

Two masters of deception -- seeing all, but 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
