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
