Shadow lyrics
by Ashlee Simpson
I was six years old when my parents went away.
I was stuck inside a broken life i couldn't wish away.
She was beautiful she had everything and more.
And my escape was hiding out and running for the door.
Somebody listen please.
It used to be so hard being me.
I was living in the shadow of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me.
Living in a nightmare.
A neverending sleep, but now that I am wide awake my chains are finally free.
Don't feel sorry for me.
All the days collided one less perfect than the next.
I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best.
Oh I love you now 'cause now I realize
That it's safe outside to come alive in my identy.
So if you're listening there's so much more to me you haven't seen.
I was
Living in the shadow of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me.
I was living in a nightmare a never ending sleep.
But now that I am wide awake
Yeah I can finally see.
Don't feel sorry for me.
Mother sister father sister mother everything's cool now.
Mother sister father sister mother everything's cool now.
Oh my life is good I've got more than anyone should oh my life is good And the past is in the past.
'Cause I was living in the shadow of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me.
I was living in the new day.
I'm living it for me.
And now that I am wide awake yeah I can finally see.
Don't feel sorry don't feel sorry for me.
Living in living in the shadow living in living in a new day.
