Shadows of the Sun

I sit in the shadows of the Sun Wondering if I'm the only one In this dark and dreary place. When I look into a puddle, it's my own face Staring back at me. My dialated eyes can hardly see Through the choking fog That's hidden me from you; That's hidden everyone I knew. Thinking that I'm the only one, I walk the shadows of the Sun Hoping to find the place Where I recognize the lonely face Looking at me from deep inside the puddle. I strain my ash colored eyes And try to see past the disguise. I wander in the shadows of the Sun, Knowing that I am the only one Who's lost in the shadows. Lost in the shadows. Lost in the shadows of the Sun.
