Shadow Battle
Darkness brings the shadows
Daylight brings them too
There is nowhere to hide
When the shadows inside of you
The shadows never listen
Just cast doubt over me
I fear this is a battle
No one else can see
Forever reaching into darkness
Means I never see
Good or bad I cannot tell
The shadows own me
The glimpse of light I thought I saw
Was coming from so far
I worked and fought so very hard
To reach another closed door
Fighting everyday
This battle in my head
The war is never over
Until I end up dead
