A loss of my shadow

 The past erupts
My face is known
While my shadow not shown
Sins long gone
Sing the same song
Days of blood and nights of flesh
What leverage would such a monster have
No excuse could save my soul
No crimson will clean the mess I have made
I need no deal with the devil
I am condemned enough
And god will not take such a thing within his gates
Under the street lamps
My shadow has fled
Second to my humanity
Some are bitten by an immortal
Some use dark magics
I commit to the deeds of darkened nights
I can long for a soul
A heart
A stable mind
But something else lurks on these streets
Longing to be human
