Twin Shadows 2 (version 2)

Verse

Grey air cools the windowpane

Faint breeze stirs through the blinds

A single light still burning in

Downstairs where I left it behind

Floorboards creak beneath my feet

The street outside is almost quiet too

I pass a vase with water low and cold

And nobody's waiting for what we do

Pre-Chorus

Maybe this was just a dream, maybe you were right

But then why does the sun still feel like something to fight?

Chorus

Oh we're chasing twin shadows on the wall

Every step behind only makes them move at all

We're following ghostly doubles down below

Twin shadows, we can't let go

Verse 2

Your mother's voice in echoes through the stairway

Says to be there but I'm already late

The clock in my mind is off a little bit too

I swear I saw your hand just brush against mine once or twice

A door creaks open into morning gold

And for one second we were side by side

But then the light cuts sharp through the blinds and gone

Leaves only this thin air and the sound of our own sighs

Pre-Chorus

Maybe this was just a dream, maybe you were right

But then why does the sun still feel like something to fight?

Chorus

Oh we're chasing twin shadows on the wall

Every step behind only makes them move at all

We're following ghostly doubles down below

Twin shadows, we can't let go

Bridge

Maybe they just want us back inside

To run the same steps through and over time again

Or maybe it's just me that I'm losing here

Either way I'll keep on chasing till you turn around

And when you do, maybe we won't be late at all

Chorus

Oh we're chasing twin shadows on the wall

Every step behind only makes them move at all

We're following ghostly doubles down below

Twin shadows, we can't let go
