Shadow
Shadow
Just another shadow
Wallowing in the dark
Standing in the background
As a lackie I follow
Content while the sun feeds me a ray here and there
But when I try to take a step out…
Blinds me and I’m forced to shrink back in the gloom
Until the day I saw him
His smile like a rope
Pulling me out of my damp well of tears
Closer and closer I go
Seeing nothing but his soft eyes
I grasp his hand
The light shining on me
Then he sees
My dark grey skin
Hallow ash eyes
His disgust immense
My body goes numb
As I make my ascendment
Back to the dark
While he walks off into the sun
The shine flows over the land
Only making the dark corners darker
Just another shadow
Wallowing in the dark
Standing in the background
As a lackie I follow
Content while the sun feeds me a ray here and there
But when I try to take a step out…
Blinds me and I’m forced to shrink back in the gloom
Until the day I saw him
His smile like a rope
Pulling me out of my damp well of tears
Closer and closer I go
Seeing nothing but his soft eyes
I grasp his hand
The light shining on me
Then he sees
My dark grey skin
Hallow ash eyes
His disgust immense
My body goes numb
As I make my ascendment
Back to the dark
While he walks off into the sun
The shine flows over the land
Only making the dark corners darker
