We Are in the Shadows - Outsiders & John West

We're on the edge of our youth, the days are getting along. It seems the times of our lives have all come and gone, but we know better. We've just begun. We are, we are, the kids in the way. You can't hold us down, oh no, you can't hold us down. This world it tells us what to do. It tells us who to be. They think their answers to this life will satisfy our needs. We are so different. We are another breed. There's nothing you can do or say, to make us choose another way. There's nothing you can do or say, to make us go away.

We are One in The Spirit, We are One in The Lord. We are One in The Spirit, We are One in The Lord. And we pray that all unity may one day be restored. And they'll know we are Christians by our love, By our Love, Yes they'll know we are Christians by our love. We shall walk with each other, We shall walk hand in hand. We shall walk with each other, We will shall walk hand in hand. And together we spread the news that God is in our land! And they'll know we are Christians by our love, By our Love, Yes they'll know we are Christians by our love.

Here we go again It's like you're calling all the shots Before I shoot them And I hate that Every time I turn my back I wonder what you'll say to make me sound Like someone different It's not worth it anymore We've been picking up the pieces Leaving all the dust behind Sick of all the pressure You're just wasting time And I don't ever wanna Know what it feels like To be a shadow of myself And I don't ever wanna Come back down from this feeling What makes you think that You know what's better for me And I don't think you wanna see what's underneath Your made up version of me There you go again believing That the truth is what you're reading Talk some shit I haven't heard before If you've got something to say (Don't wanna talk about it) If you need someone to blame (Go on and cry about it) I measure life in minutes But these critics think they've got me figured out We've been picking up the pieces Leaving all the dust behind (We left what wasn't ours behind) Sick of all the pressure You're just wasting time And I don't ever wanna Know what it feels like To be a shadow of myself And I don't ever wanna Come back down from this feeling What makes you think that You know what's better for me And I don't think you wanna see what's underneath Your made up version of me I've lost the strength to keep my Grip on the reality that Every thought from day to day Is fading from my memory But I will never let this grow Out of my control And watch your step so you don't Fall into this hole you dug alone This hole you dug alone And I don't ever wanna Know what it feels like To be a shadow of myself And I don't ever wanna Come back down from this feeling What makes you think that You know what's better for me And I don't think you wanna see what's underneath Your made up version of me
