lyrics

Looking around at every face in the crown
Wondering if he is following me now
Don’t know why and I don’t know how
He knows where I am when I’m out on the town

My shadow, my shadow and me
My shadow, my shadow and me

I duck into alleys get lost in the crowd
Change my name so I can’t be found
Hold my breath and wait for him to leave
When I inhale he is right behind me

My shadow, my shadow and me
My shadow, my shadow and me

I can’t shake this sense of danger
Tell me who’s this faceless stranger

He speaks in riddles he speaks in rhymes
Of the ways he’ll commit his crime
Hangman’s noose and a devil’s tail
Seal my coffin with a golden nail

My shadow, my shadow and me
My shadow, my shadow and me
My shadow, my shadow and me
