Leftovers shadow

(Verse 1)

I don’t have it in me to give my all,

I poured out my heart, but now I feel small.

You say he took the light that once shone bright,

Leaving shadows in the corners of your fight.

Verse 2:

Leftovers came knocking at his door With his cat Valium on his shoulder witnessed every secret he’d stored,

Special K laced with regret, a recipe designed

For men who breathed evil a leftovers skill that once aligned with in their presence, knowing that knock upon his, no reason to fight it, he said “I remembered I was already dead”

Verse 3:

He was her ex, an abusive monster,

A monster leftover craves to hunt

A Father to her children, toxic bloodlines he’d unpacked

From Leftovers past ingredients,

So my love take a breath, let the past be the past,

You’re the phoenix rising, free at last.

No more chains, no more pain to hold,

You’re rewriting your story, let it unfold.

He can’t hurt you no more, truth is he was already dead the day you met me.

As left over from old instincts subside

A ghost from his past rising to protect those he loves,

He’d sworn to hide his skills but to remain sharp
