I hide helplessly in your shadow,
to always guide you through
I live constantly in your shadow,
monitoring the things that you do
But my time is now running short,
because too many times I've tripped
Trying my hardest to keep my cover,
but still finding that I've slipped
I think I'm trying a little too hard
to find everything I can to figure you out
But the thing is, I already know you
and yet I'm filled with doubt
Maybe it's just your shadow
or the fact that in it I hide
Maybe it's that I watch from a close distance
when I should be right by your side
Maybe it's because I'm too scared
or ashamed of what I feel
Be that as it may, I'll still stay in your shadow
because I know that we can never be real
