Ghosts of Uncertainties
there are shadows over me
and creeping through my brain
why won’t they let me be?
had enough of these entities
I run, I hide, still they remain
there are shadows over me
a prisoner of uncertainty
they've locked me in chains
why won’t they let me be?
dragged by unseen enemies
tied to a runaway train
there are shadows over me
illusions, perhaps, they may be
I have fought, always in vain
why won’t they let me be?
free me from this misery
somebody, take away the pain
there are shadows over me
why won’t they let me be?
