My Shadow Companion
by Bob Bennett

Album: Small Graces


Oh loneliness
My shadow companion
You are no friend of mine

Dress yourself in the disguise
Of a quiet solitude
But I can see right through those lies
You're only happy when I brood
I pace around this empty room
Too much energy to burn
In a waking nightmare that recurs
Like a lesson never learned

And when the joy comes like a pardon
The fear still lingers in my mind
This will all be over soon
And you will still be here
Just a step or two behind
Strangling sorrow with distraction
Like I don't know what's happening
Yet I still betray myself
Sell out because I swear
I hate you more than anything

Though the pain of isolation
Is worse than any I have known
Yet I still dream about the day
When you will go away
And I will finally be alone
All alone
