Lyrics

Verse

found it just over there on the floor

close and inside the door

that shadow

that dark outline of me

the one I've always seen

that arrow those lines

sometimes in front but mostly behind

making my way through this part of town

my face staring westward

that sun going down on my end of town

Verse

the moving east that wasn't really that productive

going back wasn't very conductive

to understanding where I started

as my shadow behind on me on the ground

follows me to this edge of town

a new day rising on an old life looking forward

as my days go backward

contemplating the directions I'm headed now

Chorus

A pivot a turn a pause

that shadow waiting for my next decision

easing my fears when I look around and see it's no longer there.

the thing that lets me know

there's no longer anything left of me

the one whose shadow is no longer there

laying over there on the floor.
