Shadow by Ashlee Simpson
I was six years old
When my parents (1)________ away
I was stuck (2)____________ a broken life
I couldn't wish away
She was beautiful
She had (3)____________________ and more
And my (4)____________ 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 (5)__________ touch felt cold to me
Living in a nightmare
A never-ending sleep
But now (6)________ I am (7)________ awake
My chains are finally free
Don't feel sorry for me
All the days collided
One (8)________ perfect (9)________ the next
I was stuck inside someone else's life and (10)____________ second best
Oh, I love you now 'cause now I realize
That it's (11)________ (12)______________ to (13)________ 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 (14)________ I am wide awake
Then I can finally see
Don't feel (15)__________ for me-
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
Everything's (16)________ now
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
Everything's (17)________ now
Oh, my (18)________ is good
I've got (19)________ 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 (20)________ a (21)________ to hold but every (22)__________ felt cold to me
I'm (23)____________ in a new day
I'm living it for me
And now that I am wide awake
Then I can (24)______________ see
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, (25)____________ in the shadow
Living in, (26)____________ in, living in a new day
When my parents (1)________ away
I was stuck (2)____________ a broken life
I couldn't wish away
