It's not surprising it could end like this
Your eyes are open even when you kiss, you're so distant
So cold, so resistant
You see the world in only gray and black
Now how can anybody live like that?
Without screaming, without dying for dreaming

And you stare out the window at the passing cars
And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars
No you're never quite happy right where you are

So you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none, no there are none
Yeah you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none
You don't even see the sun, can't you see the sun?

It can't be shocking I might want to leave
The way you're living's like you're half asleep
You just drain me
If I go, who could blame me?

And you stare out the window at the passing cars
And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars
No you're never quite happy right where you are
Right where you are, with all that you are

So you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none, no there are none
Yeah you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none
You don't even see the sun, can't you see the sun?

You're so young, so beautiful
So flawless in my eyes
Don't you know the world shines
Every time you smile?
Why can't you just smile?

So you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none, no there are none
Yeah you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none
You don't even see the sun, can't you see the sun?

You dim the lights in the world I see
How I wish that I could still believe
Time to save me
If I go, who could blame me? Writer/s: Fraser Smith, Joshua Peter Kear
