the sunset

i am never alone
my shadows are close
where i need them to be
i keep them with me

i am never afraid
my shadows are close
i am safe when they stay
they whisper the way

they hold my head to the sky
and point my eyes to the end
now the sunset won’t pass me by again

i stray from the path
my shadows are late
they escape from my mind
they fall far behind

now i feel free to kill
but i know my shadows
they follow me still
and they probably always will

they hold my head to the sky
and point my eyes to the end
now the sunset won’t pass me by again

i am always alert
although my enemies are few
i know the ones you will hurt
are the closest to you

i am always awake
in the fear they are gone
but my shadows are fate
they’ve been here all along

they hold my head to the sky
and point my eyes to the end
now the sunset won’t pass me by again
