A song about wanting to break free from an unloving and controlling spouse.

lyrics

Your Shadow

I don’t want to live in your shadow
Your paradise surrounded by water
The waves are high the sharks are hungry
If I’ll survive will you still find me
Love
Your love has never failed to deny me
The freedom that was lost since you found me
I don’t know what I was thinking
Nothing changed the clock still ticking
Back
To when
I tried to save you

Back in time the first day I met you
You promised that I’d never forget you
And that’s the only promise that came through
Now I’m locked in your shadow
Down is the only place you take me
I should have known your ego would arrest me
Another boat has sailed to the wild free
Of your shadow your shadow
I don’t wanna be locked in
Your Shadow
I don’t wanna be runnin’

I don’t want to die in your shadow
In a castle that you’ve built for your lover
You made me glow like a candle
But here is something you can’t handle
Love
For you it’s just a word you through at me
I now know that you never really loved me
My head is in but I’m still breathing
Your tide is strong and it’s calling me
Back
To when
I tried to save you

Back in time the first day I met you
You promised that I’d never forget you
And that’s the only promise that came though
Now I’m locked in your shadow
Down is the only place you take me
I should have known your ego would arrest me
Another boat has sailed to the wild free
Of your shadow your shadow
I don’t wanna be locked in
Your Shadow
I don’t wanna be runnin’

The ocean wash away
The sorrow and the pain
I leave them all for you
The ocean wash away
The sorrow and the pain
I leave them all for you you you
Oh I leave them all for you

I don’t wanna live in your shadow
I don’t wanna live in your shadow
I don’t wanna live in your shadow no

Back in time the first day I met you
You promised that I’d never forget you
And that’s the only promise that came though
Now I’m locked in your shadow
Down is the only place you take me
I should have known your ego would arrest me
Another boat has sailed to the wild free
Of your shadow your shadow
I don’t wanna be locked in
Your Shadow
I don’t wanna be runnin’
Your shadow
I don’t wanna be locked in
Your Shadow
Ohhhhh
Runnin’ oh runnin’
