**Intro:**
In the shadows of my mind, where darkness reigns,
Lies a hidden part of me, bound in chains.
Not evil, just unseen, it whispers lies,
Causing pain, as my spirit dies.
**Verse 1:**
The shadow self, a curse so deep,
In the corners of my soul, it weeps.
Rage, jealousy, hatred, greed,
In every aspect, it plants its seed.
**Pre-Chorus:**
But when the light dares to intrude,
The shadow's grip begins to brood.
A twisted teacher, it reveals,
The places where my consciousness kneels.
**Chorus:**
Shadow work, a journey through despair,
Facing the darkness, gasping for air.
Bringing light to the hidden scars,
Healing wounds beneath the stars.
**Verse 2:**
Ignoring signs, the cycle persists,
Suffering grows, as the shadow twists.
In others, I see my own reflection,
A world within, seeking no redemption.
**Interlude:**
(Instrumental break, echoing the inner turmoil and relentless sorrow)
**Verse 3:**
I want to taste you again, like a secret or a sin,
Embrace the shadow, let the torment begin.
No longer bound by the unseen,
In the light, my soul is unclean.
**Bridge:**
The shadow is not bad, just concealed,
In the light, its power revealed.
A twisted teacher, it shows the way,
To a life where shadows forever stay.
**Verse 4:**
In the shadows of my mind, where darkness reigns,
Lies a hidden part of me, bound in chains.
Not evil, just unseen, it whispers lies,
Causing pain, as my spirit dies.
**Outro:**
Shadow work, a journey through despair,
Facing the darkness, gasping for air.
Bringing light to the hidden scars,
Healing wounds beneath the stars.
