ASHLEE SIMPSON - SHADOW LYRICS

Shadow Lyrics

(written by: Ashlee Simpson)

I was six years old
When my parents ran 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

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

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 'cause now I realize
That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity

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

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 in the past

I was living in the shadow
Of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
I'm living in a new day
I'm living it for me
And now that I am wide awake
Then I can finally be free
Don't feel sorry for me
Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for me
Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for me

Living in, living in, living in the shadow
Living in, living in, living in a new day

I know no one has commented on this song in a while but two things-
1) I don't hate this song, I hate Ashlee
2) I'm sick of damn poser callin' themeselves punk, newsflash if you listen to this shit, you AREN'T a punk!! I like the lyrics persay, not the song if that makes sense.
No offense to anyone who IS a punk and DOES NOT listen to this, I've never heard this song. I apologize. My opinoin(sp) OOOH! Also I have another thing to say-
Comments are for the song, not confo's. Sorry!
So I like the lyrics. Not the Artist.

this song is so related to her ... but if is wasnt for jessica ... she wouldnt be famous . but sometimes sister/brother gets those time where they get jealous because they have more attension then you do and you feel like your not wanted . i have a younger sister and sometimes i feel like she's more beloved than me . but now i dont really care no more because when i was younger ... i've had that chance to have all the attension and everything ... and now that im older i dont really need attension.

BTW i like this song ... :D
