Not The Shadow

Sitting on the edge the water looks blue And I think of only to call you Last time we spoke you said you were through Tonight the stars dance wildly to this tune Feeling like the past will intersect Don't know how this got inside my head But then I look up to see What if I told you I could hardly sleep Because of the things that I see in my dreams I'm just a monster from under your bed One of the creatures that lives in your head I'm just a villain that comes from a book I'm not the shadow of somebody good If I can see it, breathe it, touch it Then I know I'll always want it I can't stop it, I just need it All these feelings quite deceiving I always knew that this'd be the day The sun is out But it rains on my parade Sitting on the edge why do I look so blue I don't want to go I've got too much to do And why is it getting so dark so soon I think I might've fell Or I could've flew Last time I said that I will be going through Now I know it's all because of you Living all these chances I regret Don't know who or what is in my head But then I look up to see What if I told you I could hardly sleep Because of the things that I see in my dreams I'm just a monster from under your bed One of the creatures that lives in your head I'm just a villain that comes from a book I'm not the shadow of somebody good If I can see it, breathe it, touch it Then I know I'll always want it I can't stop it, I just need it All these feelings quite deceiving I always knew that this'd be the day The sun is out But it rains on my parade
