Do you mean harm?

Lost like a shadow
In the dark
I try to follow you
But you forgot to leave marks

Maybe it was accidental
I'm not quite sure
But you aren't here
To help me reassure

I'm soon to be falling
Inch by inch
Into the nearest grave
Before I could flinch

But before I touched bottom
I looked up to see
You standing there
Laughing off key

And maybe it wasn't at me
I'm not quite sure
But you aren't here
To help me reassure

I stick up for you
Like you are me
I always think you mean no harm
When really you created the dead sea
