Everywhere I go, a shadow follows me.

Try as I might, I can’t make others see.

I’m begging, I just want to be free.

I’m tired of trying to win this fight.

They always come out.

No matter the light,

No matter the night.

There’s always something close behind.

Running, chasing, I’m out of my mind.

Tired and sleepy, I just want to find…

Reaching out, into the murk.

Outwards, demons lurk.

Someone help me.

These shadows.

They overtake.
