[Intro] (I'm walking back right) (Mind you I can't feel f**ing sh**) (Yeah) [Chorus:] When The Shadows Born Blackness When The colors gone Absence Before its dark before, before too long You Will Become your only friend, frightening isn't it? [Verse 1: Early Adopted] Is it possible to plateau and never peek? In a shako taking a nap, leave me in my dreams Over slept today just to deal a little less with meneed a break, from myself; so does everybody else Same store moms caught me stealing a cap gun Razor-blade replacements I'm still the same bad son High by myself Back to that again Zoned out shadow puppet shows in the halogen Monster in the ceiling features; don't think I imagined it Woke up in the attic been years sense someone accessed it Don't trust myself when I say that I am in control I am more afraid of me then anyone else I know [Chorus:] (Looking at people shifty guaranteed) (You won't forget the day, you made eye contact with me) (where am I going) When The Shadows Born Blackness When The colors gone Absence Before its dark before, before too long You Will Become your only friend, frightening isn't it? [Verse 2: Early Adopted] Sat myself in the bathtub with the shower on Drunk till my skin pruned, don't know how long its been on Pulled my own hair back, as if I had been vomiting Sickened that he never did, scary kind of tolerance Withering away first time seeing my cheek bones Too this day she claims she could see my soul Made a conscious effort to not fall in love with you 'cus I've fallen for similar offers in the past; they all fell through (true) Its not you, its them Its not me, I know It was certainly, but sense then I have grown I became so cold as an outcome; I'd come and till you sorry, but I don't go out much [Chorus:] (Looking at people shifty; guaranteed) (You won't forget the day, you made eye contact with me) (you ruined your f**ing life) When The Shadows Born Blackness When The colors gone Absence Before its dark before, before too long You Will Become your only friend, frightening isn't it? [Verse 3: Early Adopted] Apartments a mess Credit card marks in the desk Marking a beat only certain people can spot what it is Ignorance is not bliss, but this is as good as it gets Be happy you don't have to deal with knowing what's wrong in your head; And never fixing it Assuming most people do Said that I'm an outsider, I'm starting to believe that its true I made several spare keys about four or five But I locked them all away inside As if this is secretly what I wanted; subconsciously in love with the horror Happiness isn't nearly as poetic as trauma Prey for me? Ain't enough beads on a rosary Friends still deciding if it was nice knowing me [Chorus:] (Looking at people shifty; guaranteed) (You won't forget the day, you made eye contact with me) When The Shadows Born Blackness When The colors gone Absence Before its dark before, before too long You Will Become your only friend, frightening isn't it?
