You let it rise

You let it pull you down

And as it gripped you in the darkness

With a thousand eyes a-ragin'

You were shredded all to pieces

From the things you couldn't face

You're living the long war, war

And I know

You're just a version of my shadow

I was terrified of listening to the lights, so the darkness came alive

Telling me, "I know"

You're on your own

You're in the thick of it

And the fire that's been burning in your head for all your life

Well, it's blazing through the best of you, the path is set alight

Telling me, oh-oh whoa

And I know

You're just a version of my shadow

I was terrified of listening to lights so the darkness came alive

And telling me, "I know"

Whoa, don't tear me down

I swear, I love you

Don't drown me out

I swear I love you

Don't lock me out, I swear

I love you

I love you

One, two, three, four

And I know

You're just a version of my shadow

I was terrified of listening to the lights, so the darkness came alive

Telling me, "I know"

And I know

You're just a version of my shadow

An apparition of the things I couldn't face trying to put me in my place

And telling me, "I know"
