Backstory:
Primary Cheek was formed in 2010 in the bustling city of San Francisco by four high school friends with a shared passion for making music and breaking boundaries. Lead vocalist and guitarist, James Ward, bassist, Leo Parker, drummer, Robert Foster, and keyboardist, Ethan Chase, found common ground in their love for alternative music and a drive to create something that could make a mark on the music industry. The band’s name, Primary Cheek, was a playful metaphor for their self-confessed audacious spirit, and a commitment to always put their best foot forward in their musical journey.

Over the years, the band garnered quite the following due to their unique sound and energetic performances. Their debut album, “First Strike,” was a hit in the indie scene and bolstered their reputation as a band to watch.

Title: “Chasing Shadows”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
C Am
Look into the mirror, can’t recognize my face,
Em G
Buried in the echo of a forgotten place.
C Am
Running from the past, underneath the hollow moon,
Em G
In every reflection, I find a piece of you.

(Chorus)
F C
I’m chasing shadows, in the depths of the night,
G Am
Lost in the world between the dark and the light.
F C
In this labyrinth of dreams, I’m seeking the truth,
G Am
Each shadow I chase, just leads back to you.

(Verse 2)
C Am
Walking through the mist, the cold wind at my back,
Em G
Each footstep I take, leaves a memory in its track.
C Am
Whispers in the night, they echo in my mind,
Em G
In every corner I turn, I hope it’s you I find.

(Chorus)
F C
I’m chasing shadows, dancing in your light,
G Am
Lost in the rhythm between the wrong and the right.
F C
In the depth of your eyes, I see something pure,
G Am
Each shadow I chase, just makes me want you more.
