Shadow
CC4.project Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everything will vanish in the flood
It's the eve of deconstruction
Now that you have come to worship the wrong gods
Are we doomed to make the same mistakes, over and over again?
No more hiding in the shadows
Living life on the bright side
Just being true to yourself, to your very core
Worship yourself instead of remaining a slave
Of mental states clouding your minds
Cause all the wisdom lies within your reach, the prophet says
So I have faith that you will find
Are we doomed to make the same mistakes?
No more hiding in the shadows
Living life on the bright side
Just being true to yourself, to your very core
Then there's nothing to be afraid
No more hiding in the shadows
Living life on the bright side
Just being true to yourself, to your very core
Then there's nothing to be afraid
No more hiding in the shadows
Living life on the bright side
Just being true to yourself, to your very core
Then there's nothing to be afraid of anymore
The song "Shadow" by CC4.project is a passionate and melancholic love song that speaks of the lingering feelings of a lover who is separated from their significant other.

The recurring image of the stars shifts beyond our reach is used as a metaphor to describe the emotional separation between the two. The singer's only solace is the hope of holding their lover again, forever in their arms.
The song progresses as a conversation between the two lovers, with the singer asking their lover to read their mind and tell them what they find, while the lover keeps their feelings secret. The singer's memory of their lover is internalized in their mind and they cannot move past the feelings that they shared with them. The song ends with the singer acknowledging that their love is lost in the void, and their final breath whispers the name of their lover.

Time stops
When we are together, everything else fades away and only our love remains.

This floating feeling you induce
Thinking of you puts me at ease and fills me with a sense of lightness and happiness.
You kept my guessing and hid away the truth
You were always a mystery to me, and I was never quite sure where I stood with you.
Let’s not get tangled and tied to chance
Instead of leaving our future to fate, let's take control of our lives and make our own destiny.
And leave it all up to this mad happenstance
We cannot rely on luck or circumstance to bring us together; we must take action and make it happen ourselves.
Forever closed your eyes after saying our goodbyes
After we said our farewells, it felt like you were gone forever, and my heart was left broken.
Inside my mind, your stare is internalized
I cannot forget your gaze, and it continues to haunt me even when you are gone.
We wandered alone for many hollow years
After we parted ways, I felt lost and alone, with only my memories of you to keep me company.
Never to return or amend for our tears
We cannot change the past or undo our mistakes, and we must live with the consequences of our choices.
With a floating heart
My heart is full of love and hope, but also feels unanchored and unsure of what the future holds.
I see you in the stars
The beauty of the night sky reminds me of you and the love we shared.
Lunar shadows are cast
The shadows of the moon and stars fall upon me, giving me a sense of peace and comfort.
Reflecting the past
The beauty of the night sky is a reminder of our memories together, and the love we shared in the past.
To the void
Our love may be lost or impossible, but it still exists in my heart and in the universe around me.
Not a hint of shame
I feel no guilt or regret for loving you, because it was the most important thing in my life.
My final breath
Even in death, my thoughts and love for you will never fade or disappear.
Whispers your name
I will always remember you and hold you close in my heart, no matter where life takes me.
