SHADOW SONG

TESSA ROSE JACKSON / NANA ADJOA

Tell me what you’re thinking

I’ve been low for days

Tripped up by the same thing

And who’s to say who’s to blame?

Drinking by the double

I’ve played hard to read

Work back from the ending

And dim the lights, set the scene, oh…

Take it easy on me, just

help to douse this wildfire

Trace it back to believin’

I’m burning up through this wildfire

Gentle suffocation

I’ve been so immersed

Tearing out the chapters

Who followed, who was first?

Take it easy on me, just

help to douse this wildfire

Trace it back to believin’

I’m burning up through this wildfire

But if it takes a little time 

I’m gonna be here, still

poised on the edge, I know how it feels

Little poison for the break, it

seems I can read your mind 

Keeping warm by the wildfire
