Me and My Shadow
me and my shadow
laugh and have good times
we think of cleaver ideas
and risky dink rhymes
me and my shadow
there is no way to separate
unless there is a victor
and one becomes a classic trait
me and my shadow
paint each others image
believing we're the best artist
neither portrait gets finished
me and my shadow
share each others fear
one day will cross the wrong person
and they'll have us in tears
me and my shadow
think nothing ahead
liable to get hurt
certain we are dead
me and my shadow
are underneath the bridge
hiding like a troll
waiting for a chance to get rich
me and my shadow
know the rules of the game
but we sulk to much
so we don't go out to play
me and my shadow
know what we did
get the full story
then repeat your opinion
me and my shadow
don't understand the clues
I'm left alone as usual
trying to get away from the blues
me and my shadow
know what we do
ignorance is no excuse
I take responsibility of my attitude
