My poor secret shadow
How long have you walked
Obscured in the dark of my shade
You were born right behind me
Like a dog on a chain
Watching all the mistakes I have made
When one tired candle
Makes a cavern of my room
And the ashtray spills over on the page
You flicker above me
Like a swollen balloon
In the wrought iron fiction of your cage
And it's a long time till morning reconfines you
In the bright golden fetters of the day
You will walk on behind me
Like a dog on a chain
Watching all the mistakes I have made
My poor secret shadow
You are older than me
You are old as the debts I haven't paid
Yet you follow me blindly
Like a dog on a chain
After all the mistakes I have made
And it's a long time till morning reconfines you
In the bright golden fetters of the day
You will walk on behind me
Like a dog on a chain
Watching all the mistakes I have made
You will walk on behind me
Like a dog on a chain
Watching all the mistakes I have made
How long have you walked
Obscured in the dark of my shade
You were born right behind me
Like a dog on a chain
Watching all the mistakes I have made
When one tired candle
Makes a cavern of my room
And the ashtray spills over on the page
You flicker above me
Like a swollen balloon
In the wrought iron fiction of your cage
And it's a long time till morning reconfines you
In the bright golden fetters of the day
You will walk on behind me
Like a dog on a chain
Watching all the mistakes I have made
My poor secret shadow
You are older than me
You are old as the debts I haven't paid
Yet you follow me blindly
Like a dog on a chain
After all the mistakes I have made
And it's a long time till morning reconfines you
In the bright golden fetters of the day
You will walk on behind me
Like a dog on a chain
Watching all the mistakes I have made
You will walk on behind me
Like a dog on a chain
Watching all the mistakes I have made
