Still in Your Shadow

Verse 1

I see you laughing, talking like you used to

And I pretend that it doesn’t break me through

I’ve built these walls around my quiet heart

But every smile of yours still pulls me apart

Pre-Chorus

I try to speak, I try to stay away

But memories of you, they never fade

Chorus

I’m still in your shadow, holding what I can’t let go

Though you’ve found someone new, I still feel it too

The love I left behind, it’s echoing inside

I’m still in your shadow, trying not to show

Verse 2

I feel the ache when you mention her name

A bittersweet reminder, it’s always the same

I wanted to move, to let my heart be free

But somehow, you’re still a part of me

Pre-Chorus

I try to speak, I try to walk away

But memories of you, they never fade

Chorus

I’m still in your shadow, holding what I can’t let go

Though you’ve found someone new, I still feel it too

The love I left behind, it’s echoing inside

I’m still in your shadow, trying not to show

Bridge

If I were braver, I’d tell you all my fears

If I were stronger, I’d let go of the years

But I’m still here, quietly standing near

Watching from afar, loving you in silence, my dear

Chorus / Outro

I’m still in your shadow, holding what I can’t let go

Though you’ve found someone new, I still feel it too

The love I left behind, it’s echoing inside

I’m still in your shadow, trying not to show
