Its a shame about the shadows
they saw what I did
saw the things that happened
heard the words I said.
I cannot let them tell
no soul should ever know
about that day and what they saw
I do not know what to do.
Perhaps I have a plan
it wrestles in my thoughts
twisted that I agree
but I cannot let it go.
Tomorrow night
I'll meet them
the shadows will be here
they'll look at and wonder
thinking I should fear.
But then I'll eradicate them
banish them from sight
when they and I are alone
I shall turn out the lights.
