i am but a shadow
your eternal disciple
i follow right behind
a dark and twisted shape
i do only what you do
and in the crowds
i am trampled repeatedly
or am blocked from being at all
while you stand majestic and whole
should you choose to see me
just step out of the shade
and if you desire to be rid of me
simply turn off the lights
and i shall melt away
among the evils of the night
i will return again
incarnate as long as you
should you ever grow lonely
i have no choice but to appear
but someday it might be i
that controls the lights
then maybe you'll discover
that friendship cannot be based
on the flip of a switch
