Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Woke up standing
Two steps right of my own bed
Watched my hands move
Like they belonged to someone else instead
Lipstick on
Wrong angle
Smile sitting slightly off my face
Every mirror
Shows a girl who’s slightly out of place
[Chorus]
My shadow doesn’t follow me
It’s walking somewhere down the street
Slipping through the cracks of every yesterday
I’m waving from inside my eyes
But everything feels misaligned
Like I’ve been dubbed
In a life that I didn’t play
My shadow doesn’t follow
It’s slowly walking away
[Verse 2]
Coffee tastes like
Photocopies of the real thing
Friends are talking
Their words float above me in a ring
Laugh at stories
Hear my voice but it comes late
Like bad translation
Of a script I didn’t make
[Chorus]
My shadow doesn’t follow me
It’s walking somewhere down the street
Slipping through the cracks of every yesterday
I’m waving from inside my eyes
But everything feels misaligned
Like I’ve been dubbed
In a life that I didn’t play
My shadow doesn’t follow
It’s slowly walking away
[Bridge]
Do you ever feel the air
Move through you
Not around you? (oh)
See your body in a chair
Like the room forgot to ground you?
I call my name
It echoes
But it won’t land
I reach for me
And pass right through my own hand
[Chorus]
My shadow doesn’t follow me
It’s walking somewhere down the street
Slipping through the cracks of every yesterday
I’m waving from inside my eyes
But everything feels misaligned
Like I’ve been dubbed
In a life that I didn’t play
My shadow doesn’t follow
My shadow’s fading to gray
I watch her getting smaller
As I drift further away

Style
Ethereal alt-pop with female vocals; airy pads and soft piano in the verses, pulsing electronic bass creeping in under the skin. Chorus swells with layered harmonies and a simple, hypnotic drum groove. Subtle reverse FX and filtered vocal chops mirror dissociation; bridge strips back to almost acapella before a final, fragile chorus.

A song about losing yourself mentally — like your shadow (identity) slowly stops following you. Could represent depersonalization or feeling disconnected from your own life., female
