little shadows

She was just a little shadow dancing in the light Innocence in her eyes, pure and bright

The world was a plague, not a place to explore But the darkness was waiting just outside the door

Tiny hands reaching for tomorrow No fear, no pain, no sense of sorrow

Trust in her heart, so easy to deceive She followed a smile, not knowing she'd leave

In the blink of an eye, the light starts to fade A stolen moment, a life betrayed

Where did the angels go? They're taken to stew Lost in the shadows under a cold moon

No time to say goodbye, no time to scream Just a whisper, a black heart, and a dream

Innocence shattered, hearts torn apart A life so small ripped from the start

Where do the angels go? They're taken to stew She fades into the night under a cold moon

Tiny hands, hangs her, a hand in the crowd Didn't know the darkness, didn't know how
