Shadow

Shadow, shadow, shadow
I go to the streets and I see
shadows in big numbers
upcountry shadows I see
shadow crying for shadows
shadow chasing shadows
shadow fight other shadows
shadow cheating shadows
shadow abusing shadows
shadow deceiving shadows

This is the secret life lived
a life of shadows and signs
not a single soul aware
of shadow chasing boom
shadow activities boom
shadow enterprises on show

I want to announce here as in sleep
everything done in this world
all you see are in reality, hidden
unreal realities parked with lies
framed up lies dressed in black suits

Smart and beautiful shadows smiling
beckon all to believe shadow-logy
