Song lyrics

Send "Shadow" ringtones to your cell

I was six years old
When my parents went away
I was stuck inside a broken life
I couldn't wish away
She was beautiful
She had everything and more
And my escape was hiding out and running for the door
Somebody listen please
It used to be so hard being me

[Chorus]
Living in the shadow
Of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
Living in a nightmare
A never ending sleep
But now that I am wide awake
My chains are finally free
Don't feel sorry for me

All the days collided
One next perfect then the next
I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best
Oh, I love you now 'cause now I realize
That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity
So if you're listening
There's so much more to me you haven't seen

[Chorus]
Living in the shadow
Of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
Living in a nightmare
A never-ending sleep
But now that I am wide awake
Then I can finally see
Don't feel sorry for me

Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
Everything's cool now
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
Everything's cool now
Oh, my life is good
I've got more than anyone should
Oh, my life is good
And the past is in the past

[Chorus]
I was living in the shadow
Of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
I'm living in a new day
I'm living it for me
And now that I am wide awake
Ya, I can finally be
So don't feel sorry for me
Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for me
Don't feel sory, don;t feel sorry for me

Living in, living in, living in a shadow
Living in, living in, living in a new day

5 posts	JujuBeans243 how could u think she is a minnie jessica i think she is trying to be herself instead of like everyother singer out there at least she isnt like hilary duff or avril lavinge (although there musoc is good to) and as for u i think u should go to hell(o) for saying such rude things towards such a great singer (bitch) hehehe

140 posts	im not ashlee's fan, but i dont agree with people who think she cant sing or shes just her sister's shadow her voice is quite good (though its probably not as good as some others) and thats why she became a singer, not because her sis is a singer

1 posts	Hola! bueno, a mi me encanta esta cancion, la verdad es muy bonita y la letra la hace mas linda todavia. No hace mucho que descubri a Ashlee Simpson, pero desde que la conozco, sus canciones me gustan muchisimo, me llegaron a gustar mas que las canciones de la hermana, y si supiera eso, se que se alegraria mucho, ya que intenta ser mejor que su hermana! pero buen me fui por las ramas!! Bueno, recomiendo SHADOW, para que la escuchen porque es hermosaa!! - V i c u -

9 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal hey, i dont no if she is talking bout herself and her sis jessica about her always being the best and her having that singing career and always wanting to be her sister or something like that and at the end about her saying ' every things cool now' like her and her sister are good and all that.and like her living in the shadow of her sister... but i love this song the best song on her album !!!!!

4 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal IIi heard that the song isnt necessarily about her sister. You can take a different meaning to the song you know, other than the obvious! It can be about finding yourself and who you want to be. Just wanted to let you all know that. Thats what I heard and Thats how I interpret the song but you all can think of the song how you want. Thats just the way I like to listen to it. Anyway, I love the song...I really like her voice its very unique...I hope she keeps going strong~!! :l
