The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The shadows follow me
They hold me within their grasp
Hiding me from hungry eyes
I’m a silhouette of a man
Forgotten before i’m ever known
Dying as i live my life
It is lonely here in this darkness
I try and sleep the pain away
In the darkness, hear me cry
In the darkness i live to die
In the darkness, i will wallow
In the darkness, the shadows follow
My hopes and dreams lie dead
Beneath a veil of black
I know death lurks nearby
Watching me... waiting for me...
I’ve tried a million times
To find a place to hide
No matter what i do
The shadows will follow
No emotion inside of me
Everything is so obscure
I cannot tell what is real
The sun begins to fade away
As the music slowly dies
I dream of you as i fade away
