Booked a trip to Texas, thought I'd start again Switched all my addresses and ghosted all my friends Thought I could escape but I could not transcend Found myself back in the same old place again Everywhere I go my shadow, it follows behind Doesn't matter where I travel, my shadow, it finds me Something that I've come to realize after all this time I can't escape my shadow, I can't escape my shadow Maybe on the nexus, the common thread that binds The problems in my head and the world that lives outside I thought I could escape but it's fate I've come to find My devil is the devil that's inside Everywhere I go my shadow, it follows behind Doesn't matter where I travel, my shadow, it finds me Something that I've come to realize after all this time I can't escape my shadow, I can't escape my shadow It won't ever let me go It goes everywhere I go It won't ever let me go This shadow, this shadow of mine We grapple, we battle But we are shackled for eternity We grapple, we battle We're shackled, we're shackled, we're shackled Everywhere I go my shadow, it follows behind Doesn't matter where I travel, my shadow, it finds me Something that I've come to realize after all this time I can't escape my shadow, I can't escape my shadow It won't ever let me go It goes everywhere I go It won't ever let me go This shadow, this shadow of mine
