• My talking shadow
    It spoke to me
    It spoke of glory
    And with glee

    It spoke of no worries
    And carefree days
    Lots of friends
    And happy stays

    It spoke of joyful
    Days with no ends
    A love who smiles
    With time to spend

    But something frightened
    My talking shadow
    It speaks now of
    It would never had of

    And with these days
    It speaks of terror
    Rotting flesh
    And burning error

    Lonely days
    No company
    Barely friends
    Nothing, just me

    Terribly dull
    Days with quick ends
    Passing by
    My love has ran

    An aging body
    Sagging skin
    A slipping mind filled
    To brim with sins

    And now my shadow
    Has run from me
    To love another
    Drained eyes can see
