Lyrics
Another wasted day it seems
Feeling that the day has been unproductive or futile.
A tragedy, a tragedy
Describing the day as a tragic event.
Watching all my fading dreams
Observing one's dreams diminishing or fading away.
Escaping me, escaping me
Feeling that one's dreams are slipping away or eluding.
And all that I wanted was someone to tell me it's okay
Expressing a desire for reassurance and support.
But I waited oh I waited
Implying patience and anticipation for someone to provide comfort.
When my shadow's all that you see
Highlighting a state where one's flaws or struggles are prominently visible.
When my shadow's bigger than me
Indicating a situation where personal challenges or shortcomings overshadow one's identity.
Tell me where did I go so wrong
Pondering the point of deviation or mistake in life.
Another day a week a year
Emphasizing the passage of time, suggesting a sense of urgency.
So rapidly, rapidly
Describing the quick passage of time, potentially leading to missed opportunities.
Falling closer to your fear
Referring to a gradual descent towards one's fears or insecurities.
Like gravity, gravity
Comparing the descent to the force of gravity, emphasizing its inevitability.
And all that you want is someone to tell you it's okay
Acknowledging the universal need for reassurance and understanding.
So I'll say it, oh I'll say it
Committing to providing the needed reassurance and support.
When my shadow's all that you see
Reiterating a state where personal struggles or flaws are prominently visible to others.
When my shadow's bigger than me
Emphasizing the overwhelming nature of personal challenges, overshadowing one's identity.
Tell me where did I go so wrong
Continuing to reflect on the perceived wrong turns or mistakes in life.
Too long the darkest days have covered me
Describing a prolonged period of difficulty or hardship.
This shadow isn't what I wanna be
Rejecting the current state of being a shadow and expressing a desire for change.
So I'll face the sun and make it follow me
Determined to face challenges and lead a positive, proactive life.
When my shadow's all that you see
Reiterating the visibility of personal struggles or flaws to others.
When my shadow's bigger than me
Highlighting the dominance of personal challenges over one's sense of self.
Tell me where did I go so wrong
Continuing to seek understanding about the perceived wrong turns in life.
