I'm drawing constellations of my confidence and fear
My life is flying by but I get younger every year
And now I know I'm chasing a shadow

I eat and drink and spend and fuck and never get my fill
And the truth is hard to swallow like a jagged little pill
But now I know I'm chasing a shadow

I can run away but I can't let go
I'm addicted now like a chemical
I'm lighting the fuse and then praying I don't explode
But I know it'll never be enough

I devastate my senses but it never stops the pain
The weight is on my spirit like I'm standing in the rain

I can run away but I can't let go
I'm addicted now like a chemical
I'm racing and running and chasing
A pot of gold
But I know it'll never be enough

I'm chasing a shadow
