I hide in the dark Where I shed light on the walls, The showman performs behind me and I only see a silhouette I'm fighting with shadows. Shadow boxing with shadow puppets, The candle that light that fire will fall and the puppetry will disappear. My hands still tied to the chair.

That's me in Plato's Cave
I hide in the dark Where I shed light on the walls, The showman performs behind me and I only see a silhouette I'm fighting with shadows. Shadow boxing with shadow puppets, The candle that light that fire will fall and the puppetry will disappear. My hands still tied to the chair.
