Inventing Shadows (The Voice Performance)

It's not surprising it could end like this Your eyes are open even when you kiss You're so distant So cold, so resistant You see the world in only grey and black Now how could anybody live like that Without screaming Without dying for dreaming And you stare out the window at the passing cars And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars No you're never quite happy right where you are So you keep on Inventing shadows Where there are none No, there are none Yeah, you keep on Inventing shadows Where there are none You don't even see the sun Can't you see the sun? You can't be shocked that I might want to leave The way you're living's like you're half asleep You just drain me If I go who could blame me? And you stare out the window at the passing cars And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars No you're never quite happy right where you are Right where you are, with all that you are So you keep on Inventing shadows Where there are none No, there are none Yeah, you keep on Inventing shadows Where there are none You don't even see the sun Can't you see the sun? You're so young, so beautiful So flawless in my eyes Don't you know the world shines Every time you smile Why can't you just smile? So you keep on Inventing shadows Where there are none No, there are none Yeah, you keep on Inventing shadows Where there are none You don't even see the sun Can't you see the sun? You dim the lights in the world I see How I wish that I could still believe Time to save me If I go who could blame me?
