You talk of our future As if it's been set in stone I err on the side of caution I'm accustomed to being alone While I know the things I do Are not acceptable to you It seems the more I try to stop The more I feel I'm giving up I want to be wanted I strive to be worth it You thought I was thoughtless Then walk - see if I care less Maybe I'm in denial Reinvention is drawing near Well, she's a sympathetic ear Making sense of all I fear And though I know I'm doing wrong I feel I've got to carry on I'm giving up hope of finding perfection I find it hard enough just seeking affection You think it's a joke - then why aren't you laughing? I'm a realist - is that such a bad thing? No giving in, no compromises No giving in, no compromises No giving in, no compromises No giving in, no compromises No compromises, no compromises No compromises, no compromises No compromises, no compromises No compromises, no compromises I'm not the person I once was I've been corrupted by my cause This is my one state of affairs In a State that's not aware I want to be wanted I strive to be worth it You thought I was thoughtless Then walk, go on - just see if I care less Tell me you don't need me And then I can be free Tell me you don't need me And then I can be free No giving in, no compromises

If you come searching for me Looking for something complete If you come searching for me (Will you find me, will you find me?) Looking for something complete (Will you find me, will you find me?) If you come searching for me Will you find me, will you find me? Looking for something complete Will you find me, will you find me?

Living In Your Shadow 03:39
lyrics

I know all about you I've heard just what you do But I've only heard the one side The side that you left behind It could be that I don't know The whole thing - even so The result of all that you did Is that she has to live with it Living in your shadow Does it always have to be the same? With so many hang-ups What's left in her past gets in the way I'm living in your shadow If ever we'd have met We might have becom friends To share the same companion Must mean we've things in common But now I'm hearing daily How she can never be free Or forget all that happened And that's no consolation Living in your shadow Does it always have to be the same? With so many issues What's been in her past gets in the way Living in your shadow Feeling repercussions every day Maybe she'd forget you If she'd focus on the things I say I'm living in your shadow Why were you the first Creating all this hurt? If I'd been there right from the start I'd have protected and guarded her heart But for now... I'm living in your shadow Does it always have to be the same? With so many hang-ups What's left in her past gets in the way Living in your shadow Knowing each and every single day If she can forget you Tomorrow could become today I'm living in your shadow
