Running From My Shadow - Mike Shinoda,Grandson

[00:00.00]
[00:10.75]Wanna know where I don't go
[00:12.15]When it goes from OK to a oh no
[00:14.05]When it goes from hi five to a low blow
[00:16.01]When it goes from all five to a solo
[00:18.06]Lemme tell you what you don't know
[00:19.58]I been down so low I was
[00:21.41]Looking for something but denying that I found it
[00:23.55]There's an elephant sitting in the room
[00:24.93]And I can't find another way to tiptoe around it
[00:27.56]I been doing greater good for a long time
[00:29.19]But I can't find any other way to give now
[00:31.43]I been putting myself on the sideline
[00:33.03]And it's been time so I'm saying can I live now
[00:35.29]
[00:35.32]There are times when I kick myself
[00:36.89]Say I'm not sick but I can't get well
[00:39.04]Say I got this while I chase my tail
[00:40.63]As if they can't tell
[00:41.62]
[00:41.82]I'm running from my shadow
[00:44.64]Running from my shadow but it's still there chasing me down
[00:49.49]I'll never win the battle
[00:52.39]Never win the battle and I should have known it by now
[00:57.47]Just when I think I've found the end ohhh
[01:01.08]I'm going back around again ohhh
[01:04.85]Running from my shadow
[01:08.57]Running from my shadow but it's still there chasing me down
[01:13.16]
[01:14.60]Light side's got a dark side to it
[01:16.36]Daytime flows into night like fluid
[01:18.19]The yin and the yang with a curved line through it
[01:20.35]And none of it's illuminating why I do it
[01:22.28]Maybe I didn't want to chase what was not right
[01:24.49]Maybe I didn't want to face you were offsides
[01:26.38]Thinking I was far away from a crossed line
[01:28.37]But I was giving soft praise to a hard lie
[01:30.32]There are things that you say and you don't say
[01:32.08]My tongue's gotten real tired of me biting it
[01:34.09]'Cause I keep on following the wrong way
[01:36.16]Time's come and I can't keep denying it
[01:38.13]There are times when I kick myself
[01:39.96]Say I'm not sick but I can't get well
[01:41.76]Say I got this while I chase my tail
[01:43.68]As if they can't tell
[01:44.69]
[01:44.72]I'm running from my shadow
[01:47.85]Running from my shadow but it's still there chasing me down
[01:52.64]I'll never win the battle
[01:55.58]Never win the battle and I should have known it by now
[02:00.39]Just when I think I've found the end ohhh
[02:03.90]I'm going back around again ohhh
[02:07.88]Running from my shadow
[02:11.52]Running from my shadow but it's still there chasing me down
[02:15.87]
[02:18.01]I love you but I know / I gotta let you go
[02:22.09]Dancing with the devil cause she's all I've ever known
[02:25.92]Wanted to pretend / That this time was the end
[02:29.95]Sorry but I guess I gotta let you down again
[02:36.09]Again
[02:40.55]Again
[02:45.07]Running from my shadow now my shadow is my only friend
[02:48.82]
[02:55.29]Running from my shadow
[02:59.68]But it's still there chasing me down
[03:11.52]Running from my shadow
[03:14.13]Running from my shadow but it's still there chasing me down
