Shadows on the wall
All you’ve seen
          All your life
Shadows
The only reality
Shadows moving
        Shadows dancing
                 Shadows talking
But nothing is really there
Shadows
Pale imitations
Escape the shadows
Leave
Run
See beyond
          See true reality
                    See true meaning
Difficult to comprehend
It’s painful
Adjust
          Adjust
                    A lifetime to adjust
To reality
This new reality
So beautiful
So different
Share it with the shadows
New reality is life
Save them from themselves
          New reality is death
                    Shadows destroy
                              What tries to change
Shadows kill you
          For seeing this new reality
Shadows
The world’s reality.

hmm i wouldnt say shadows 'kill you' some of us live in shadows and arent dead, but i do get the meaning of it and very well written

violence may not be the answer, but it does make good headway
