what that's like - shaodow lyrics

verse 1 – shaodow

how do you write a song like this
is there a method of expressing that you know exactly what loneliness is
that sometimes you would wish
just for them to see you
that to be true didn’t have to make you see through
i know it cos i’ve been through
lived it, dreamt it
pretended i was fine but deep down wanted to end it
everyday i felt it, sticking in my paw
the need for their approval kept me tied down to the floor so

chorus – sam harrison

so hold me closer, don’t let me sit back
tired of being kicked flat on the floor
you’re not quite nervous, but that’s soon seen to
ship comes in the soldiers won the war

verse 2 – shaodow

i spent my teenage years all alone with my thoughts
cos i couldn’t get along with the ones and the noughts
uh, and still i walked, confidence depleting
trying to reinvent myself every other evening
hoping to be pleasing, hoping that i was just dreaming
hoping they’d acknowledge me, hoping for some meaning
all i wanted a friend
but all i really got was -ss-ssins that pretend
so for my own sanity i had to stop caring what they think
i was staring at that knife almost took it from the sink
me or them, free or penned even at that brink
i taught myself to grow cos they wanted me to shrink so

chorus – sam harrison

so hold me closer, don’t let me sit back
tired of being kicked flat on the floor
you’re not quite nervous, but that’s soon seen to
ship comes in the soldiers won the war

bridge – sam harrison

mid life down and my body’s sinking
soon i’m sad cos i’m underrated
you don’t know what that’s like
i hit the ground on the back foot running
sit back down while she overcomes me
you don’t know what that’s like

chorus – sam harrison

so hold me closer, don’t let me sit back
tired of being kicked flat on the floor
you’re not quite nervous, but that’s soon seen to
ship comes in the soldiers won the war

verse 3 – shaodow

i never felt i belonged
always on the outside, always in the wrong
the way i longed for acceptance
was just another target painted for their weapons
threatened, cos i weren’t the same
or cos i had my own way
i really don’t know but it lived within my brain
crushing, stuck in, sucked into the darkness
and there i fought to find the wealth inside myself regardless
it’s what i’d known, alone is how i’d grown
so i had to turn around and make the loneliness my home
if you know what that’s like
then you’ll know why i’m like this
the way they made me feel
i’ll never let them reignite it
