WHO KNEW?

I TURN MY BACK ON THE WORLD

BECAUSE EVERYONE IS AGAINST ME

I TURN TO THE REFLECTION IN THE MIRROR

BECAUSE THE REFLECTION REVEALS MY DEMONS

PEOPLE JUDGE MY PERSONALITIES

BECAUSE THEY ARE NOTHING LIKE ME

I SPEAK WITH HONESTY

AND RESPECT I WILL ALWAYS GIVE

EVEN TOWARDS MY WORST ENEMY

DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE SHADOW

IT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF

THAT IS WERE EVIL DWELL

BUT, THE VOICES ARE SILENT

AND THE EXPRESSIONS ARE LOUD

LOOK DEEP INTO MY EYES

AND YOU WILL SEE ANGER AND HATE.

EVERYONE WONDERS WHY?

BUT ONLY MY SHADOW KNOWS!

I UNDERSTAND BECAUSE IT IS

I UNDERSTAND BECAUSE IT IS THE SAME FOR ME.
