[Verse 1]

I'm giving you silent treatment

Over something that never happened

It's hard not to notice

Broken promises are overlapping

My friends saying you're a lost cause

Another hopeless challenge

To turn you into who I imagined

[Pre-Chorus]

And I realise, you're not the guy

To chase me when I'm crying and I'm

Storming out at 2AM

Oh god, who are you in my head?

[Chorus]

I've been shining a light at the wall

An image of you that I know you're not

Casting your shadow

Like I'm a director of my thoughts

I'm a projector

[Verse 2]

Learned to tolerate your parents

And spent a [?] in your bed

I know I didn't do all that

For you to call me a friend

And I brushed it off, too many times

And told myself I'd change ur mind

But I realise, you're not that guy

I'm just feeding you the lines

[Chorus]

I've been shining a light at the wall

An image of you that I know you're not

Casting your shadow like I'm a director of my thoughts

I'm a projector

And I'm just setting myself up for the fall

Telling myself I can rewrite the plot

Casting your shadow

Like I'm a director of my thoughts

I'm a projector

Of my thoughts, I'm a projector

I've been shining a light at the wall

An image of you that I know you're not

Casting your shadow

Like I'm a director of my thoughts

I'm a projector
