Shadow

There lays a figure behind you

That you carry everywhere you go

When you turn around that’s what you turn to

Because that’s really all you know

This shadow has a story that it needs to tell

But it is so afraid of what people will say

It’s like your shadow is a holding cell

That is leading you astray

You want a path full of light

Where that shadow is in front instead of behind

You want that shadow to be filled with delight

Where you are no longer blind by the deep desires of the mind

Its time that the shadow be set free

Your shadow is no longer a DEAD SEA!
