Chasing Shadows
I’ve been chasing shadows for so long, I know not what else to do
I’m left wondering what went wrong, was it lies, was it true?
Looking back upon foot prints cast, they seem so shallow to me
In stepping light and stepping fast, was there no time to stop and see?
Half a lifetime lost upon the sand, of hourglasses smashed and lost
Slipping slowly through my hand, only now I stop to count the cost
This beat was all twisted and deceived, with images of golden joy
Those images could not be received, nothing but the dancers toy
I’ve been chasing shadows for so long, I know not what else to do
I don’t know how to sing my song, now I’ve stopped chasing you.
