IV. The Shadow Man - Seventh Dimension

In moments of confusion and anger

A boy can easily pass over

And enter the dark mirror

The reflection can be invisible to oneself

And bring forth the dark side

Of a way of being

The mirror will absorb your anger

And make you feel comfortable

In your new life

Making it easy for a shadow man

Woke up in a forest

Far away from my home

I spot some light

A man behind a fire

He said «Don't be afraid»

«I'll give you the help you need»

He reaches out his hand

Inviting me in the night

He told me about this cruel world

Where good things never stay

He said the darkness opened his eyes

As the fire begins to fade

He invites me to take part of his life

Beside him, on the ground I see a knife

Revenge burns in a eleven year old kid

I accept to join his life

He guides me to a path

We’re running all around doing criminal acts

He wants revenge on the world

I might as well feel the same wrath

Where shall I go?

This life seems so unreal

I can’t think clear enough

This life is not for me

Now we have begun

He says it’s too late to turn back

And that we must give back evil

For the evil we’ve received

This man of shadows

Who leads me on evil ways

Who proclaims revenge

And says that the world must pay

But now I see a final picture

I do not see any reason

You won’t guide me no more

I’m walking out the door

Help me

I don’t know where I am

Or where I should go

Give me a meaning

To all that’s happening to me
