So close but so very far away
then so near yet so unattainable
I smash my plates and curse
never happiness with my shadow shadows

They just keep me hungry
those shadow shadows on the wall
they follow me wherever I go
shadows so wanting me to fall

Why do I have two of them
why do they dress in black
sometimes out of the corner of my eye
I swear one is wearing a hat

If I should fall, they will fall with me
if I die they will die with me
and those shadow shadows
will cast no more spells on me
