Shadows appear to dance with delight
Amused by the sorrows I feel tonight
It seems my pain which they do hear
Fills their eyes with humorous tears
Why does my pain give them such glee
That they must go and dance so free
Circling me in the darkest night
Life begins to seem dark; not bright
Silently they begin to draw near
And yet it is not the Shadows we fear
Struck with solitude, sorrow, and pain
These are the things we fear to attain
So as I hurt in the darkest night
Watching the Shadows come closer in sight
I bottle their humor, deep down inside
And wait for my Shadows to just pass me by
