In the Shadows

In the shadows that’s were I am, It seems that every time the light is near, The sun hides behind the clouds as if in fear, The sun she leaves me in the dark to cry my tears. The shadows are like chains, That keeps me bound to never ending darkness filled with fear and shame, Slowly pulling me away, In the shadows were I stay. In the shadows my demons lurk, They show me no mercy, They tell me this is your life, your curse, what makes you weak, I scream inside leave me be, it hurt’s can’t you see. In the shadows.
