[Z Berg - Berg and I lyrics]
So I woke up one morning with
A shadow sleeping in my bed
His voice was soft and solemn but the teeth
Were rotting out his head
He said to me, "Let's make a deal
I'll get you out of this here mess
But follow you, I will, until you're dead"
And as the days went by
My shadow matched my each and every step
And whispered words of wickedness that
Rattled 'round my weary head
Till I gave up and let him
Do the talking while I rested
And forgot the countless wicked
Things he said
So is he my shadow, or am I his?
Am I who I am, or what I did?
And soon I got so light my
Wicked shadow tripped me constantly
And shadows pooled upon my skin each
Time I fell upon my knees spotted, dotted
Tattered with a shadow hanging over me
I hung my head and wished for sweet relief
Now he's the one things happen to
I look upon it helplessly
He's taken on my mannerisms
Acts my life out like a scene
Haunted, hounded as my shadow taunts
Me with his tactics
I stare stupid, and in utter disbelief
So is he my shadow, or am I his?
Am I who I am, or what I did?
And then one day I turned around
And found my shadow missing
It was worse than that first moment when
I woke up lying next to him
"Have I been dreaming this whole time?"
I asked to no one listening
And a shudder rippled through
My chest like lightning
There is no shadow, there's never been
There is no shadow, there never is
I am what I am and what I did
A shadow sleeping in my bed
His voice was soft and solemn but the teeth
Were rotting out his head
He said to me, "Let's make a deal
I'll get you out of this here mess
But follow you, I will, until you're dead"
And as the days went by
My shadow matched my each and every step
And whispered words of wickedness that
Rattled 'round my weary head
Till I gave up and let him
Do the talking while I rested
And forgot the countless wicked
Things he said
So is he my shadow, or am I his?
Am I who I am, or what I did?
And soon I got so light my
Wicked shadow tripped me constantly
And shadows pooled upon my skin each
Time I fell upon my knees spotted, dotted
Tattered with a shadow hanging over me
I hung my head and wished for sweet relief
Now he's the one things happen to
I look upon it helplessly
He's taken on my mannerisms
Acts my life out like a scene
Haunted, hounded as my shadow taunts
Me with his tactics
I stare stupid, and in utter disbelief
So is he my shadow, or am I his?
Am I who I am, or what I did?
And then one day I turned around
And found my shadow missing
It was worse than that first moment when
I woke up lying next to him
"Have I been dreaming this whole time?"
I asked to no one listening
And a shudder rippled through
My chest like lightning
There is no shadow, there's never been
There is no shadow, there never is
I am what I am and what I did
