My eyes are closed but I still see
Perverted thoughts and fantasies
Visualized and idolized
By the blind eye in my mind
I`m knee-deep in black pools of timeless boredom
While watching seconds being drowned
By the outstretched hands of lazy hours
They move so slowly with the tide
My shadow
My shadow
The servant of every thought I`ve bled
My shadow
My shadow
Please steal every tear I shed
My shadow
My shadow
You`ve always been my dearest friend
My shadow
My shadow
Never leave me all alone again
Dust is falling heavily to the ground
Suppressing every need to feel
Reality between numb fingers
All I need is to breathe, to bleed, to be alive
And silence is a speeding bullet
Ricocheting of the walls
Piercing through the soothing shield of sound
As I`m slowly giving in to paranoia
My shadow
My shadow
The servant of every thought I`ve bled
My shadow
My shadow
Have you stolen every tear I`ve shed?
My shadow
My shadow
Are you still my dearest friend?
My shadow
My shadow
Why did you leave me all alone again?
Now can you hear my desperate cry
Stripped down to a crippled whisper
As dead silence, it will never be heard
Unless someone takes the time to listen
My blind mind is set on auto-pilot
The crash position is assumed
I`m made a witness to the truth
I`m sure I will remember it soon….....
Even in my arms
You were far beyond my reach
My shadow
My shadow
The servant of every thought I`ve bled
My shadow
My shadow
The mother of every tear I`ve shed
My shadow
My shadow
You were supposed to be my only friend
My shadow
My shadow
You`ve left me all alone again
My shadow
My shadow
Why did you set me free?
My shadow
My shadow
Why won`t you follow me?
No shadow
No shadow
