In The Shadows

I am the mysterious person

Who stands in the shadows

I wonder what will happen the day pigs fly

I hear the voices in my head screaming

We're all going to die

I see the girl across the room

She's curled in a ball

She's crying

I want to wrap her in my arms

And say" don't worry "

But

I am the mysterious person

Who stands in the shadows

.

I pretend that I am the hero

That will someday save the world

From a grate evil

.

I feel the winds of time stirring

And the wheel that weaves

The laceof ages

Turning

.

I touch the power

That both fills me with life

And trys to kill me

I worry that I will go mad

Or my life blood stop flowing

But

I cry because

I am the mysterious person

Who stands in the shadows

.

I understand the grave-dogs bark

It says we'll all die some day

I say if that is so

I will live my life

The best I know

.

I dream of the day I find my love

And try not to cry if I don't

But

I hope people don't see that

I am the mysterious person

Who stands in the shadows
