Shadow

I shut the door and switch off the lights
But it won’t go away
Memories of you follow me behind wherever I go

I cover my eyes in the dark
And shudder
But why? Why is it you again?

Though I wipe clean and burn everything in my head
Your face comes back

Memories of being in love come back
You follow me around and pester me every day
You’re like a shadow

Your voice that echoed on and on in my ears
Won’t leave me
Though I run away, I’m still in the same place
Oh you’re like a shadow

Memories that I can’t grasp in my hands
Are meaningless
You will disappear like the wind the moment I open my eyes

The shadow grows longer and longer
I look back
Why? Why is it still you?

Though I erase and burn you
Your traces grow deeper

Memories of being in love come back
You follow me around and pester me every day
You’re like a shadow

Your voice that echoed on and on in my ears
Won’t leave me
Though I run away, I’m still in the same place
Oh you’re like a shadow

Only the splintered memories
(I will stay with you forever)
Sink deeper and deeper into my heart
(You can’t erase me)
A crack of light comes back
And your shadow stabs me again

I remember how you looked like at the end
The memory haunts me
As if you’re mocking me
You’re like a shadow

Though I hide in the dark again and again
You chase after me
You won’t leave me
Though I run away, I’m still in the same place
Oh you’re like a shadow
