I often see shadows, racing across my mind. Leaping out from the corners of alleyways I've left behind.

Wondering if I see them still at all, these shadows they remind me of how i once lost it all.

I cannot keep them locked away for they know that silly game, of cobwebbed skeletons lying friskily, deep inside my cave.

Oh How I struggle! To keep the shadows at bay. Oh How hungrily they grow! whilst i try to run away.

But in the end they always find me, during the sunset of everyday.
