shadow without a name

even though i have a shadow beside me
i believe i am the shadow
.....i'm there but i seem invisible.....

it's as if you look straight through me
like i'm a window and you can only see beyond
.....i question if i really exist.....

i lower my head and force back tears
they'll never notice me as i walk away
.....i'm dead after all.....

i crave for an easy life
but my soul seems to be on fire
.....i'm burning in pain.....

those words repeat themselves
whirl round my mind causing torment
.....no one cares no one see's.....

just gouge my heart out and eat it
your hunger to end my life is obvious
.....i'll never be at peace.....
