When's it finally gonna come around?

I don't wanna be myself if this is how it's gonna be.

I've been everywhere if you count what's on the TV screen.

I'm just bored most of the time. Yeah.



And who says we

Shouldn't be the way we are?

For as long as we are,

We are the shadows dancing



And I've talked myself down from the ledge every time.

I don't think it matters much now either way.

And I'd like to tell you that I feel significant,

But that's not the way it feels most days



And who says we

Shouldn't be the way we are?

For as long as we are,

We are the shadows dancing



There was a time when I was sure that i could matter more.

I'm just doing my job day after day.

And everything's money and keeping up appearances

And I tell you, you only get for what you pay.



And who says we

Shouldn't be the way we are?

For as long as we are,

We are the shadows dancing
