Chasing Shadows - Intellectual

[Intro]

(Oh, oh)

We were running after something

We got close but couldn't touch it

Over time, the lies have finally come to light

We got too far down the road

To change our minds and let it go

So I tried to ride it out and save my pride

It was a dead end every time

You normalized ignoring signs

Yeah, we fought that fight and we faked those smiles

And it felt alright for a little while

Oh, but hindsight shows this was never love

We were nеver close, just chasing shadows

(Oh, oh)

We wеre feeding on illusion

Living off of our excuses

Saying it's a season that we won't be in for long

Putting faith in our potential, betting on the stars

Knowing it ain't accidental that we wound up where we are

It was a dead end every time

Looking back, no wonder why

Yeah, we fought that fight and we faked those smiles

And it felt alright for a little while

Oh, but hindsight shows this was never love

We were never close, just chasing shadows

(Oh) Chasing shadows

Never even close

Yeah, we fought that fight and we faked those smiles

And it felt alright for a little while

Oh, but hindsight shows this was never love

We were never close, just chasing shadows

(Oh) Chasing shadows

(Oh)

(Oh) Never even close

(Oh) Just chasing shadows
