Shadow

Do you see me, changed and standing
Like a rose that withered and then bloomed
Reborn from the ashes as if time didn't matter
Logic shouldn't make sense to you

Remember me? I'm the one who tried
With knife in hand I didn't mean to leave you a scar
But since I couldn't have you sober, I'd have you drunk

Memories in the form of shadows
Creeping from the corner of your eyes
Dripping like tears with the years of regret, glistening
I see them as it is, the mark of a new beginning

You probably remember me as before
You might have thought of something else
But I am in truth completely new
Although none of it were thanks to you

Don't remember me as I was in front of you
Your eyes were only deceiving you
As I follow you as your shadow
You won't be able to step on me again
