Description
The shady side is a place to hide. The darkness protects us from judgement but keeps us from feeling the light. When you're ready to step out of the shadows It's hard to leave the familiarity. But if you keep moving steadily forward toward the light, you will step out and feel the warmth of the sun and know it is worth the wait.
Lyrics
Slept through easter yesterday Took care of christmas the same way Try to read your mind but it don't make sense It's all letters and numbers and bitterness Step by step each step I take Take me to an unsure place After her after them after me after all These small steps I take won't make me fall But I shuffle surely Not sure why The growing shadows hide my eyes On the shady side Cold came quick this time around Found myself lyin' down in a diein' town Was wasted like too many times before But I'm not so wasted I'm not wastin' anymore But I shuffle surely Not sure why The growing shadows guide my eyes This shady side of time is all the luck I need Maybe this time there's a way for me But still I shuffle surely Not sure why The grown shadows have my eyes On the shady side Time I step tonight From the shadyside
