Shadow People

Disclaiming leading to disdain
Though I know it's been this way
As long as I can see it's face
I cannot run, no I cannot run

Is this where I disappear?
This gentle box I hold so near
It's vacant essence I can see right through it's clear
I cannot run, no I cannot run

Surrounding mist is closing in
Drowning out my intentions
The ones I never truly knew before they hid
I cannot run, no I cannot run

I see the stagnant gaze again
A presence that will not amend
Even if it means the end

I would not run, no I would not run
I know, it's cold, below
I know, it's low, I'm told

The Shadow People say

Gone is still my memory
And afterall you're not a dream
Seems I must be withered seamless with the trees
I cannot run, no I cannot run

Gone is still my memory
But you're feeling like a dream
It seems I've failed to see the forest from the trees
I cannot run, no I cannot run

I know, it's cold, below
I know, it's low, I'm told
Don't go, it's cold, below
My soul, transpose, limbo
