Pete Lorimer - Shadow lyrics

[Verse 1 - Ashlee Simpson] I was six years old When my parents went away I was stuck inside a broken life I couldn't wish away She was beautiful She had everything and more And my escape was hiding out and running for the door [Chorus - Ashlee Simpson] Somebody listen please It used to be so hard being me Living in the shadow Of someone else's dream Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me Living in a nightmare A never-ending sleep But now that I am wide awake My chains are finally free Don't feel sorry for me [Verse 2 - Ashlee Simpson] All the days collided One less perfect than the next I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best Oh, I love you now because now I realize That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity [Chorus - Ashlee Simpson] So if you're listening There's so much more to me you haven't seen Living in the shadow Of someone else's dream Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me Living in a nightmare A never-ending sleep But now that I am wide awake Then I can finally see Don't feel sorry for me [Verse 3 - Ashlee Simpson] Mother, sister, father, sister, mother Everything's cool now Mother, sister, father, sister, mother Everything's cool now Oh, my life is good I've got more than anyone should Oh, my life is good And the past is in the past [Chorus- Ashlee Simpson] So if you're listening There's so much more to me you haven't seen Living in the shadow Of someone else's dream Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me Living in a nightmare A never-ending sleep But now that I am wide awake Then I can finally see Don't feel sorry for me [Outro - Ashlee Simpson] Living in, living in, living in the shadow Living in, living in, living in a new day
