Shadows of the Past

Shadows of the Past

I walked in with a swagger, thought I had it all,
Mask on my face, just waiting for the fall.
You painted your dreams, and I played the part,
This heart of mine it’s a work of fallen art.

I’m not the man

I\'m not the man you thought I was,
Caught in the mirror, lost in a perpetual buzz.
Promises broken, shadows of the past,
What you see is a shell, just a die that was cast.

I gave you my fire,
Which ignited the night,
Every flicker fades,

I gave you my fire, which ignited the night,
But every flicker fades, while every flame burns bright.
You wanted a hero, but I’m just a man,
With cracks in my armor, I\'m doing what I can.

I’m not the man

I\'m not the man you thought I was,
Caught in the mirror, lost in a buzz.
Promises broken, shadows of the past,
What you see is a shell, a die that was cast.

Raise your glass high, here’s to the truth,
The person you wanted was a ghost of my youth.
I’m just a man
Not the man you thought I was

Caught in the mirror
Promises broken,
Shadows of the past,
Shadows…
