    Default Shadow

    This is one of my favourite songs because I can play the music to it on the guitar. Open to any comments/criticism

    I glanced upon the ground today
    I noticed something
    It followed me along the way
    A figure of gray
    Impersonating every move I make

    It's name, it's name is my shadow
    And I said can you replace it
    So you'll be with me every where I go

    Treading on your feet
    Running right next to me
    I slow down so you can catch your breath
    A never-ending dream
    You'll become a part of me
    Day or night, dark or light you'll be
    Taking over that thing called my shadow

    And what happens on the days when
    The clouds appear and fade away my shade oh
    That's our que babe
    We'll run away to a place where the sun always shines

    Nothing can take you away
    Cause your my shadow made
    In my shape
    You'll be there
    You'll be there like the stars are when it's late

    Treading on your feet
    Running right next to me
    I slow down so you can catch your breath
    A never-ending dream
    You'll become a part of me
    Day or night, dark or light you'll be
    Taking over that thing called my shadow

    Shouldn't the first verse go:

    "The name, the name is my shadow
    and I said you CAN'T replace it"
    "...One likes to believe in the freedom of music
    but glittering prizes and endless compromises shatter the illusion of integrity."

    I don't get the bit about the name, but no it's 'can you replace it', it's like her thinking of replacing a boy with her shadow so he'll be with her everywhere she goes, 'You'll become a part of me'. It's her 'never ending dream' I supppose it is a little confusing...

    Naa, I love confusing, It's so simple yet, it really brings the sweetness out, like a normal person is saying it. I like that .Great job!

    Yeah, I completely agree with Acheramee. There's probably a better word I could use for this but it's late so I'll say there's a sort of 'cute' feel off it and I really like the dreamyness of it all. I think its great!
