Oh, shadow, let me go,
Let me go off of your hands,
Bring back the light
I used to see on the path.
Take away my fear,
And give me back my courage.
I need to step out,
Step out of your home;
It makes me weak,
It takes everything away from me.
Let me step out,
Just one more time,
And then keep your door closed,
Lock it with a chain.
I don't hate you,
I just can't need you
At this time of my life.
I shall return,
When the time is right;
When my thoughts are back.
