My shadow

(hmm-mmm)

(hmm, hmm)

Walking with my shadow

Right behind me (yeah)

He:

Late night, long road

Trash can rolling, hoodie low

Talking to the outline on the asphalt

Like, “You stayed when everyone let go”

She:

Street sign flicker on my face

Your shape tangled up with mine

Two silhouettes in the same small space

But you keep stepping out of line (hey)

With my shadow

When the whole world turns around and goes

You still follow

Through the high, through the hollow lows

Side by side, even when I’m shallow

I’m dancing, I’m running

With my shadow

(hmm-mmm, hmm)

He:

Who knows me better than the dark twin

Saw every bad call, every sharp spin

Every “I’m fine” I said, you laughed thin

Stayed stuck to my back when the light thinned

She:

I don’t ask why you break again

I just lean where the shape begins

Put my hand on the wall, trace your outline

Turn your cracks into quiet hymns (ooh)

With my shadow

When the whole world turns around and goes

You still follow

Through the high, through the hollow lows

Side by side, even when I’m shallow

I’m dancing, I’m running

With my shadow

(hmm-mmm, hmm-yeah)

He:

Talk to the dark like it’s you on the line

Argue with myself, then we both align

Every flaw you copy, every fear you show

Makes me feel less alone on the way home

She:

If you fade in the morning

I’ll wait till the evening light

’Cause I know you’ll be crawling

Back under my feet by night (by night)

With my shadow

When the noise gets cruel and cold

You still follow

Never ask for silver or gold

Side by side, even when I’m shallow

I’m broken, I’m glowing

With my shadow

(hmm-mmm)

(hmm, hmm-mm)

Walk with my shadow

Till the light lets go
