single movement attracts my attention
quick turn to see it disappear
My [bad word] to witness what is real
Thoughts prey on a realistic view

Here is where the daylight fade
Darkness leans on a morbid cain

Thought’s deprived of sterile day
haunting by the shadow play
So very still and silent I lay
To trace your steps through shadows way

The shadow represents a time before I knew
presence felt, cold and by my side
I am your captive audience
Show yourself, and prove I am not mad

Here is where the daylight fade
Darkness leans on a morbid cain

Thought’s deprived of sterile day
haunting by the shadow play
So very still and silent I lay
To trace your steps through shadows way

I can hear you. I know you are there.
Your outline against the wall betrays
Standing in the dark, lurking in my dreams
I can hear your breathing across the room

Insignificant within the infinite
road I have travelled many of day
Swallowed by the black in nights sky
Left to admire the beautiful failure

Not much will [bad word] of me this night
Not any night when the gallows fill
Sleep will find the deserts sand
This [bad word] fall steals my breath away

Thought’s deprived of sterile day
haunting by the shadow play
So very still and silent I lay
To trace your steps through shadows way
