Evil Shadow
It follows me where ever I go
Like a shadow on the street
While telling all of my secrets
To everyone I meet
I try to hide my face from him
While pretending he's not real
It's him that I'm ashamed of
But something, I can't conceal
Why does he have to follow me,
This demon I try to forget?
He mocks me when he shows his face
His teeth are filled with regret
He waits until my soul is weak
Walking close behind
Then devours the person I am
Starting with my mind
He knows you too, this evil one
It's a shadow, we all cast
He tells our secrets to one and all
This demon, we call our past
