Shadow

The world keeps coming for me
Devil's on my path
Another day of bargaining is heavy on my back
Can't catch me, I'm fast on my feet
Evil at my door, but he can't put me away.

I never walk alone
He's on my hide
It's time for reckoning, it's time he moved aside.
Don't know his name but I know him well
Always in my face with a sad tale to tell.

Everywhere I go
Your shadow follows me
A ghost that never crosses over
Shadow let me be
I wanna take this walk alone
Follower please go back home
Don't you follow me no more.

My man he's got a tale
He'll put you in a trance
My head is down, just listening, I'm giving him that chance.
Sometimes I smile, cause he's got that charm
But I remember where he's coming from.

Unless I have a death wish, babe
I best be on the run
The venom running' through his chains
Can choke me till I'm done
I tell him that to be on his way
Cause the Man above won't give him another day

Everywhere I go
Your shadow follows me
A ghost that never crosses over
Shadow let me be
I wanna take this walk alone
Follower please go back home
Don't you follow me no more.

Don't be fooled, Shadow played it so cool
Changing shapes, blocking all the light of day
Sun come down, ain't no shelter around
Bet you never knew
That Shadow's coming for you
