| I come out in your night sleep
|
| Like the silence in the street
|
| I withdraw, if you come back
|
| Hoody on and fade to black
|
| You strike the bell and bring to heel
|
| The offspring of a lousy deal
|
| Forced into line in every sense
|
| You cage the bird in ignorance
|
| I create, you destroy, you made me the shadowboy
|
| You took the ground, you cut my view
|
| Brought up walls i can’t break through
|
| They swallow my identity
|
| Your walls became a part of me
|
| Your barking voice, your caustic smell
|
| Made me a creature in a shell
|
| I’ve locked myself up like a fist
|
| What survives deserves to live
|
| I create, you destroy, you complete the shadowboy
|
| I found shelter at the darkened corners
|
| Learned from survivors like rodents and crawlers
|
| I became familiar with marten and fox
|
| Allied in the shadows between all the blocks
|
| They warned me to run before i die out
|
| Follow the dead rails and don’t turn around
|
| Follow them till the dead-end
|
| And dive into the woods on the left hand
|
| You can trace but you can’t destroy the footprint of a shadowboy
|
| I create, i create, i create, i create, i create
|
| You destroy, you made me the shadowboy |
