My black backpack?s stuffed with broken dreams Twenty bucks should get me through the week Never said a word of discontentment Fought it a thousand times but now I?m leaving home
[Refrain]
Here in the shadows I?m safe I?m free I?ve nowhere else to go but I cannot stay where I don?t belong
Two months pass by and it?s getting cold I know I?m not lost I?m just alone But I won?t cry I won?t give up I can?t go back now Waking up is knowing who you really are
[Refrain]
Here in the shadows I?m safe I?m free I?ve nowhere else to go but I cannot stay where I don?t belong
In the shadows I?m safe I?m free I?ve nowhere else to go but I cannot stay hero
Show me the shadow where true meaning lies So much more is made in empty eyes.
