Running from my shadow More deep than shallow I cannot get away From it I cannot stray I try so hard to run And it's not just for fun It stays right on my tail As though it's prevailed My shadow, I cannot hide The sun shines down Exposition of the dark mass Is at my side I draw my gun at my side I take aim I take a shot, it does no good It still is there I should've known about the law The law of light And when I see this shadow Closing on me I am aware that it is there I'll let it be So I know now is the only way Turn off the light
