Iv. The Shadow Man

In moments of confusion and angerA boy can easily pass overAnd enter the dark mirrorThe reflection can be invisible to oneselfAnd bring forth the dark sideOf a way of beingThe mirror will absorb your angerAnd make you feel comfortableIn your new lifeMaking it easy for a shadow man***Woke up in a forestFar away from my homeI spot some lightA man behind a fireHe said "Don't be afraid""I'll give you the help you need"He reaches out his handInviting me in the nightHe told me about this cruel worldWhere good things never stayHe said the darkness opened his eyesAs the fire begins to fadeHe invites me to take part of his lifeBeside him, on the ground I see a knifeRevenge burns in a eleven year old kidI accept to join his lifeHe guides me to a pathWe're running all around doing criminal actsHe wants revenge on the worldI might as well feel the same wrathWhere shall I go?This life seems so unrealI can't think clear enoughThis life is not for meNow we have begunHe says it's too late to turn backAnd that we must give back evilFor the evil we've receivedThis man of shadowsWho leads me on evil waysWho proclaims revengeAnd says that the world must payBut now I see a final pictureI do not see any reasonYou won't guide me no moreI'm walking out the doorHelp meI don't know where I amOr where I should goGive me a meaningTo all that's happening to me
