Shadow

Staring at the ceiling sorting out my thoughts

Weighing every word I want to say

Darkness fills the room, it's closing in on us

The words all come out wrong again, I let you down

If I could just trust more I'd dare to speak the truth

Wish I could give one hundred percent

It's sad and unfair, you too are suffering

When I'm the guilty you are the innocent

For way too long

I've been merely a shadow of my true self

I'm in despair

I'm beyond repair

A shadow hanging over me it clouds my mind

Preventing any sane thoughts to occur

A silhouette is cast on your side of the bed

Reminding me of what I have become

For way too long

I've been merely a shadow of my true self

I'm in despair

I'm beyond repair
