Shadows

I see my own shadow
But wonder what it sees of me
The black pace of darkness I see
Behind me

But then I think of another shadow
That always haunts me
And I think of the past as a foreshadow
I think of the first time I went down
All that hurt
All the lies that went around
I missed the part where he treated me like dirt
But since I've learned I wouldn't always frown

Shadows trail behind me of all of it
And all that were sent to large bottomless pit

I should have seen it coming
Nothing can ever be that good
I see that now as you're running
I love you with all my heart
But you'd rather leave chances in the dark
As for within me I've fallen apart
Again I feel that unbearable pain
Again I think that was my last love gain
Worst let down yet
Disappointments are in a set
My sleeves are always wet
At myself I am upset
I'm just a shadow to you now
And you're wondering how
Where you losing your mind
You think you were blind
But I think you're blind now
You regret every vow
Every memory you're trying to run over with a plow
Something you've left behind
If only I had the power to remind
You what you could find

I hope I'm always your shadow
