Sombra (part. Hakuro)

Shadows lose
Their shape, overlapping in unity
In the twilight
Figures distort in the dark

And like her, I also get lost on the avenue
Between the light and the familiar vastness
And it’s in this moment that I cherish the few
And the same ones who lift me off the ground

I’ve got this crazy urge
To meet up with my shadow
And ask what she knows about us

And if the longing takes over
I’ll look for something
That’ll make me forget my voice

Who’s that in the mirror?
I don’t know who it is
Burning films in the garage
You don’t know who it is

These photos are from someone else
Just some random guy
I don’t recognize him at all
Where’s the face, who is it?
The portrait got lost in the flash

Now I see that I don’t understand what I think
In the old mirror, I no longer recognize myself
And all the time I spent brooding
I should’ve spent flipping channels

I heard life is more than we believe
There’s so, so much beautiful stuff

While we search for someone else
Our shadow screams and that echoes

That’s why nothing and no one will fill the hole you have
You yourself need attention
And it’s this self-esteem that leads me down paths
That make no sense, just lost, without ground

I’ve got this crazy urge
To meet up with my shadow
And ask what she knows about us
And if the longing takes over
I’ll look for something
That’ll make me forget my voice

So I let my shadow answer everything someone wants from me
To find me a new face where I’ve never seen

And I just ask that this wave takes me far away from here
Where the shadows don’t find me
Where I can smile

So I let my shadow answer everything
That someone wants from me
To find me a new face where I’ve never seen

And I just ask that this wave takes me far away from here
Where the shadows don’t find me
Where I can smile
