I LIKE IT!

The shadow serves as a blanket for

Your every move

But it's useless if it's already dark

It hasn't got that much of a heart

And much less to prove

And even less still it has at stake

Nothing more than a numbing for

The searing pain of life

Nostalgically manipulative

But I like it

I like it

It's really nice and I like it

Is it weird that I like it?

It's kinda fun and I like it

My shadow likes to absorb my past

And claim it as its own

My coattails threadbared, caliginous

I'd say my shadow's seen better days

It's lazier now

I want to force it to change its ways

Something less than the fiery mess

In a dull respite of death

Nothing more than a numbing for what?

Unassuming, almost ingenious

But I like it

I like it

I'm obligated to like it

I like it

I like it

I've got no choice but to like it

Please step down

Fatigued from all of your following around

Please step aside

Act while you still have some semblance of pride

Now step down

You're just an absence of light hitting the ground

Now step ahead

Has my shadow now become my silhouette?
