Didn't want to know
I just didn't want to know
I should have left it in the shadows
But I went looking for dirt
And I found dirt
You warned me before I went into the shadows
But I never learned how to listen
I put on my shiny armor
And went into the shadows
I found the skeleton
Of the one before me
Decayed and rotten
To the bone
I came from the shadows . . . changed
I asked you what did he mean to you
All I needed to hear was "first love"
Then I knew I didn't go into the
shadows
I was this knight's shadow
I'm nothing compared to him
You tell me that I'm more than him
That he is in my shadow
But no one ever really truly
Forgets there first true love
So I stand here asking myself
Am I his shadow
Or is he my shadow
But really I'm not afraid of being his shadow
But becoming his roommate
So I ask you again am I in the shadow
Or did I make the darken shadow
