"Chasing Shadows" Songtext
von Angels & Airwaves

Eighteen and a wicker basket
Red cape and a open casket
Tied up to a broken lever
If I move it hurts forever
I am not that (host)?
But I want her
Wolf in a winter playground
White snow to let the red out
I hear that alarms are better
Than a warning like a feather
I don′t like my tone
But I want her


So here I am
I'm falling to my knees
I′m digging out the shadows of a ghost
When you come around
So here I am
I'm waiting for the tease
I'm sleeping in the gallows that I chose
When you come around

Why sleep I can′t forget it
Moonrise I′m now committed
Your move cause I am tethered
Like a slave I don't know better
I listen for your words
Yeah I want her
Lost boys in a haunted forest
Bright things in the maze before us
My life has now been severed
I can′t bare to remember who I was before
The day I met her


So here I am
I'm falling to my knees
I′m digging out the shadows of a ghost
When you come around
So here I am
I'm waiting for the tease
I′m sleeping in the gallows that I chose
When you come around
So here I am
I'm falling to my knees
I'm digging out the shadows of a ghost
When you come around
So here I am
I′m waiting for the tease
I′m sleeping in the gallows that I chose
When you come around
So here I am
I'm falling to my knees
I′m digging out the shadows of a ghost
When you come around
So here I am
I'm waiting for the tease
I′m sleeping in the gallows that I chose
When you come around
