It's 2:00 A.M. and nowhere to go
But I'm coming clean tonight so get ready for the show
And I said, I can't let her fall
Cause she's tired of running and it's too hard to crawl
I wish she'd step back out of the dark
She'd take a bullet in her hand before she'd open her heart
I wish she'd step back out of the night
It's hard to put in words but I'm trying
She's kinda like a picture that's a little too faded
And they call her the shadow girl
And though I could never be the man to save her
Maybe I could bring some color back to her world
I know she's been here before
She lives by the ocean but she'll die by the shore
Her soul has never be reached
I watched her go from an angel to the queen of deceit
She needs to step out into the sun
Where the low life's dried before it's ever begun
I wish she'd step back and out of her mind
Before she breaks down walking the line
She's kinda like a picture that's a little too faded
And they call her the shadow girl
And though I could never be the man to save her
Maybe I could bring some color back to her world
She's like a storm before a perfect rainbow
But she sees her future in black and white
And though I could never find the nerve to tell her
I'm thinking that she needs some color back in her life
Shadow Girl
Oh, shadow Girl
She's kinda like a picture that's a little too faded
And they call her the shadow girl
And though I could never be the man to save her
Maybe I could bring some color back to her world
Maybe I could bring some color back to her world
Maybe I could bring some color back to her world
