He's A Shadow.

He’s A Shadow.

He’s a shadow,
A stealthy conception,

He knows what he's doing,
But do they?
While the lights are low,
He’s out causing issue,

He’s a shadow,
A stealthy conception,

Is it much to ask?
To be considered as equal,
And not pushed to a life of evil,
Not shoved down,

He's a shadow,
A stealthy conception,

You know its all your fault,
You never cared,
You always wanted more,
And when it never came you swore,

He's a shadow,
A stealthy conception,

Maybe its on your mind not his,
Because all he sees is red,
You’ve beaten all else out,
And left a hollow shell,

He's a shadow,
A stealthy conception,

It’s on the morrow you'll find,
A discarded corpse,
That was dead,
Many years before

He’s a shadow,
A stealthy conception,

A misdirected threat,
An ill hidden vowel,
A misplaced blow,
An ill covered bruise,

He’s a shadow,
A stealthy conception,

It’s all in your eyes,
You know its all your fault,
His shell was finally discarded,
The many years dead corpse,

He's a shadow,
A stealthy conception,

Is it just one more blow?
That you wanted to give,
Or a too late apology,
Given in ill grace.
