My Enemy , My shadow

I'm my own enemy , someone that follows me in the dark , my shadow , it scares me i see it from the corner of my eyes just cant believe it

walking down a long road tryna see in the darkness , a voice once told me can't you see you and me we're meant to be, it frightens me but i hold my breath and count to three , 1 2 3

i see it again my shadow, calling me, getting closer .
goose bumps around my whole body like a ghost just past me , my pupils huge, heart pumping .. i see it, its here

the light , where have you been? my enemy , my shadow it follows me till i get to the next .
