only when the shadow falls

verse1

I used to stare at the ceiling, thi king I wanted my space

now I just stare at the walls, trying to remember your face

the silence is loud in this room, heavier than any chain

I never thought that a summer sun could turn into freezing rain

Pre-Chorus

I was running from shadows that weren't even there

bkind to the light we used to share

now the door is locked and the key is cast away

and there's nothing left for me to say

chorus

'cause you don't feel cold til the fire goes out

you dont hear the truth until it's buried in doubt

I was holding a diamond, but I thought it was stone

yeah, you never notice the air until your breathing alone

now im standing right here in the dark

realizing what I threw away...to late

verse2

your pictures are still on the counter smiling like yesterday

while I'm just a ghost in this house, watching it all fade away

I thought I was strong on my own thought i could conquer the world

but a king doesn't mean a damn thing without his girl

Pre-Chorus

I was running from shadows that weren't even there

blind to the light we used to share

now the door is locked and the key is cast away

and there's nothing left for me to say

chorus

'cause you don't feel the cold til the fire goes out

you don't hear the truth until it's buried in doubt

I was holding a diamond, but I thought it was stone

yeah, you never notice the air until your breathing alone

now I'm standing right here in the dark

realizing what I threw away...to late

guitar solo

bridge

can we turn back the hands on the clock?

can we break through the the rusted on the lock?

or am I just screaming your name to the wind?

Wishing for a place to begin...again

chorus

'cause you don't feel the cold til the fire goes out

you don't hear the truth until it's buried in doubt

I was holding a diamond, but I thought it was stone

yeah, you never notice the air until your breathing alone

now I'm standing right here in the dark

realizing what I threw away...to late

outro

breathing alone...

yeah, I threw it away

now I'm out in the cold

to late...
