Shadows on the Ceiling

Verse 1

Shadows on the ceiling dancing out of time

Moving like a memory I forgot was mine

Every little flicker tells a different tale

Of a world I used to know that's growing pale

Verse 2

Lying in the half-light, listening to the sound

Of a thousand whispered thoughts spinning 'round

Is it just illusion, is it just a dream?

Or something in between the in-between?

Chorus

Shadows on the ceiling

Won't let me go

Everywhere I turn

They already know

All the things I'm feeling

But I never say

Shadows on the ceiling

Fade away

Verse 3

Faces in the corners, calling out my name

Looking like they're sorry, looking just the same

Every little movement, every silent stare

Like a truth that's hanging in the air

Chorus

Shadows on the ceiling

Following me down

Every quiet moment

Every hidden sound

All the things I buried

Start to reappear

Shadows on the ceiling

Drawing near

Bridge

If I close my eyes, will they disappear?

Or are they the things I don't want to hear?

Is it all in my mind, or is it all too real?

Something I can't touch but I can feel

Outro

Shadows on the ceiling...

Drifting out of sight

Melting with the darkness

Into morning light
