[Intro]

[Verse 1]
4 AM, beside myself
And what I think of mental health
All the things that worry me
All the things you don't believe
I've been told just what to do
Where to look and point my view
All the things that I could be
I think I learned in therapy

[Pre-Chorus]
Am I just a shadow you drew?

[Chorus]
It comes back to you
It comes back to you
All the things that you had lost
Will find their way to you
It comes back to you
It comes back to you
Looking back into the past
And I can see it through

[Post-Chorus]
It comes back to you, oh
It comes back to you, oh
It comes back to you, oh
It comes back to you

[Verse 2]
Mocking birds and diamond rings
Oh, I have thought of greater things
All the things that fly by me
All the lives that I could lead
Maybe I was born for that
Or maybe I was first to last
You could call it cowardice
But leave me to my studied bliss

[Pre-Chorus]
Am I just a shadow you drew?

[Chorus]
It comes back to you
It comes back to you
All the things that you had lost
Will find their way to you
It comes back to you
It comes back to you
Looking back into the past
And I can see it through

[Post-Chorus]
It comes back to you, oh
It comes back to you, oh
It comes back to you, oh
It comes back to you

Imagine Dragons

One of the defining artists of the 2010s and perhaps the biggest band of the decade, Imagine Dragons is an American alt-rock band that originated in Las Vegas and led by Dan Reynolds. While the band began in 2008, the group boasted an entirely different roster than most are familiar. Before releasing their debut album, Night Visions, in 2012, the band released six EPs over four years, constantly shifting their sound and roster from folk to the crowd-shattering anthems they’ve been known for since.

The band’s roster was finalized before Night Visions‘ release with Daniel Platzman on the drums, Wayne Sermon on guitar, and Ben McKee on bass. Their break-out single, “Radioactive” was essential to putting Vegas on the map musically, citing The Killers before them. The song went on to become an international success, obliterating the record for the most weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 at 87 straight weeks.

It wasn’t until 2015 the band released their sophomore album, Smoke + Mirrors. The album was extremely divergent from their freshman album, characterized by an accentuation of their Rock roots and an internal struggle, later described by Reynolds as being his bout with severe depression.
