Boy With No Shadow -

Everywhere he’d go his shadow would follow

He tried to hide within the light

But his shadow did follow

He walked up to his mother

His shadow did follow

He told her he was frightened

His shadow did follow

All night long he’d try to cry himself to sleep

But the shadow would whisper and scratch at his toes

No one would believe his shadow was evil

Swinging from the midnight trees

His shadow did follow

Climbing though the window

His shadow did follow

Crawling underneath his bed

His shadow did follow

All night long he’d try to cry himself to sleep

But the shadow would whisper and scratch at his toes

Never did he speak to the shadow that followed

It told him of such awful things

His shadow that followed

At last he grew so sick

Of his shadow that followed

He begged it to just go away

And strangely it listened
