Imminent Shadow

Night time comes And I see you standin' there In the corner of my room Head bowed down and aloof Poison in my every breath Pushing down on my chest My imminent shadow Grandfather couldn't run from you Age let his guard down slow His mind as sharp as a knife Turns to cotton when you show You wait in silence when I was young When I was innocent and free My imminent shadow I'll ignore the flowers, the sun, and the moon Ignore the mountains when you're here Sleep in 'til the month of June Hide away when you'll appear Tiptoeing around an empty stage Draw the curtains to the front again My imminent shadow
