    Default Shadow on The Wall

    It's been awhile since I've posted I've been extremely busy. This song is written for a friend of mine from his perspective. I'm still working on some of the verses I'm hoping to use some words from him to fully wrap the song up.

    I was born
    Never met you
    You were gone
    Before it was noon
    And you said
    You'd be back one day


    Well now I'm grown
    I still don't know you
    I'm not sure if I want to
    My heart tells me one thing
    My mind tells me another
    But how am I to know
    "Chorus"
    What you thought
    Was just a shadow on the wall
    Was really the son you never called
    No you never thought your life
    Would end this way


    You called the hard line
    A line that only declines
    It's too late this time
    To fix your old mistakes
    I am far beyond you
    I have seen my world
    With out you
    I don't need you anymore


    "Chorus"
    What you thought
    Was just a shadow on the wall
    Was really the son you never called
    No you never thought your life
    Would end this way
    What you thought
    Was just a shadow on the wall
    Was really the son you never called
    No you never thought your life
    Would end this way
    End this way

    "Bridge"
    You never had the courage to stay
    You never had the chance to say
    I love you
    I love you
    What am I to you
    What am I to you
    Just a shadow on the wall
    Just a shadow on the wall
    What am I to you
    Just a 50 dollar satisfy
    What am I to you
    To you....(fading)


    "Chorus/outro" (slow)
    What you thought
    Was just a shadow on the wall
    Was really the son you never called
    No you never thought your life
    Would end this way

    There is not enough space or time to truly let the song unwind
