my little shadow

​

My little shadow

Stays by my side

Sees how I run

Knows where I hide

​

My little shadow

Brushes my skin

Knocks on my brain

Tries to sneak in

​

My little shadow

Covers my eyes

Slips in my ears

Whispering lies

​

My little shadow

Wraps around me

Crushes me tight

I cannot breathe

​

My little shadow

Trips up my feet

Swallows my soul

I'm feeling weak

​

My little shadow

Just like a ghost

Takes on my body

I am its host.
