about
Shadows (Jimmy Tillier)
When you were kids, you played with us
Sometimes scary, sometime fancy
You decided to ignore us
When you grew up, we weren’t funny
Now we spend time just mirroring
Suffering orders from puppeteers
No more than slaves, we are dreaming
Of escaping from your bodies
We are shadows, we are not ghosts
Why do you fear to look at us ?
We are shadows, we’re parts of you
We share the same identities
Every night, we disappear
When there’s no light, we are all free
Dancing around in a whisper
In the darkness, all together
Since you forgot to play with lights
Our life became gray and silence
We are still here always around
You lost your imagination
When you don’t move, you don’t see us
Trying to get your attention
But all our world moves around you
Waiting for you to remember
We are shadows, we are not ghosts
Why do you fear to look at us ?
We are shadows, we’re parts of you
We share the same identities
Every night, we disappear
When there’s no light, we are all free
Dancing around in a whisper
In the darkness, all together
We don’t get old, we don’t have age
The light gives us all kind of shapes
And at your death, your soul is away
We are the only ones to stay
We are shadows, we are not ghosts
Why do you fear to look at us ?
We are shadows, we’re parts of you
We share the same identities
Every night, we disappear
When there’s no light, we are all free
Dancing around in a whisper
In the darkness, all together
We are shadows, we are not ghosts
Why do you fear to look at us ?
We are shadows, we’re parts of you
We share the same identities
Every night, we disappear
When there’s no light, we are all free
Dancing around in a whisper
In the darkness, all together
