[Verse 1]
I saw a psychiatric detective
After waking up, he moved so slow
He had a shadow camera
Pointed where the bad thoughts go
He looked at me like a clue
Like he knew what I’d become
Then he wrote my name in dust
And said, “The truth will come”
[Pre-Chorus]
It was too real
Too close
I couldn’t blink
I couldn’t hold
[Chorus]
Shadow camera
Catch that face
Shadow camera
Name the place
It was truth
It hit me hard
Shadow camera
Tore apart
(Shadow camera)
(Shadow camera)
[Verse 2]
He said my silence had footprints
On the tiles by the door
Said my fear was wearing boots
And came back wanting more
My favorite genre is sixty-six
That’s what I told him, low
He just smiled like a locked-up room
And told me, “Now you know”
[Pre-Chorus]
It was too real
Too close
I couldn’t blink
I couldn’t hold
[Chorus]
Shadow camera
Catch that face
Shadow camera
Name the place
It was truth
It hit me hard
Shadow camera
Tore apart
(Shadow camera)
(Shadow camera)
[Bridge]
He turned the lens on me
And all my masks fell through
No more hiding in the dark
No more running from the blue
I woke up with the answer
Burned behind my eyes
A small machine of honesty
A room full of lies
[Chorus]
Shadow camera
Catch that face
Shadow camera
Name the place
It was truth
It hit me hard
Shadow camera
Tore apart
(Shadow camera)
(Shadow camera)
