I couldn’t be the hopeless helping

And now I know

That I didn’t feel it overcome me

The shadow

When you said my name

It’s not somewhere you’d expect to be

Held captive

I’ll leave that feeling far behind me, as I grow

The regret you’d expect when you curse my name

Now I’m numb to the words

Lost touch with every sentence

It’s not somewhere you’d expect to be

Held captive

An afterthought for everything

Until you walk away

A lover, a shadow. Without even knowing it

The passing of time had it’s own way of showing me

A lover, a shadow
