Anywhere I go, anything I try, anyone I love is compromised
Everyone I see staring on back at me
Why can't you let me be?
Ooh I'm so far home
Being shallow and alone
And why can't you see it's tearing away what I used to be
I'm a shadow of a soul
I don't know how to hide
I don't know where to run
The old me is done and gone inside
What will you think of me
When all that you'll ever see
Is only a part of the other me
Ooh I'm so far home
Being shallow and alone
And why can't you see it's tearing away I used to be
Ooh I'm so far from home
Being shallow and alone
And why can't you see
It's tearing away what I used to be
I'm a shadow of a soul
You can tear away the layers on the outside
But what lies underneath you'll never find
Too may people taking up my space
Too many faces pressing up against my face
Ooh I'm so far home
Being shallow and alone
And why can't you see
It's tearing away what I used to be
I'm a shadow of a soul
