A Shadow In Your Ultimate Dream

Fighting inside.

This uncontrollable need.

Watching them smile,

it makes me feel weak.

Happy outside, internally sad.

Trying to find a peace,

The peace I once had.

And while everyone knows where you're to be seen,

I remain the shadow in your ultimate dream.

In my mind, my life has never seemed so pitch black.

The memories crawl and rake up my back.

The pain once inflicted is inflicted again,

yet I still take it, cause I am condemned.

Fire all around me, left with a choice,

burn forever or pray and rejoice.

That light'll shine on you, wherever it be.

And I'll always stay a shadow in your ultimate dream.
