Chasing Shadows
Chasing shadows, over my walls
with myself hardly sleeping.
Dwarfs and giants, twenty feet tall
fill the room with their creeping.
Sounds of breathing sharpen my ears
then they fade into nothing.
Someone's laughter out in the street
fills the night with their loving.
I feel the ice in my head
running its hands through my bed,
not even dreaming, I seem to be dead,
colours of yellow and colours of red.
All I'm asking some secret voice
is to lead me to darkness
I'm so tired, dawn never comes,
I just lie in the shadows
