It's not my shadow following me
It’s the ghost of who I used to be
And all the others who crowded me
Have finally set me free

So I’ve been trying to break free
But the past keeps weighing down on me
Turning my smile to a frown
And making me so unhappy

All I need is someone someday
Who won’t turn the skies from blue to gray
I’m hoping you’ll be that someone
And that today is someday

Please don’t throw my heart away
I’m tired of digging through garbage all day
I know I’ll find it again someday
But I don’t think I can live another day
Without it feeling okay

Next time my head’s against the ground
And I can’t seem to get around
‘Cause my voice ain’t very loud
I’ll prob’ly never be found
All I need is someone someday
Who won’t turn the skies from blue to gray
I’m hoping you’ll be that someone
And that today is someday

It's not my shadow following me
It’s the ghost of who I used to be
