Francis Demute - In His Shadow Lyrics

He's looking so powerful
Charming, funny, solemn stare
With so many people on his side
They used to be my friends
And I used them for my end
Opening the circle
Just to get me inside
I feel so proud of myself
I stay in his shadow
As long as it protects me
I know I'll be fine
I know
Now they don't ask me what is up
The faintest interest fades away
They just smile and look at our leader
And I do too
I think I've become his shadow, now
Learning, copying every move
Then somebody turned down the light
And I found out I was no one
I stay in his shadow
As long as it protects me
I know I'll be fine
I know
And I stay in his shadow
I need nothing else
Why should I
Anyway?
They still smile, empty brains
Walking skeletons, but I'm worse
Invisible like my hope for change
Reflecting back my insides
I am stepping out
Now I'm stepping out
I am breaking free
Today
