Can Me...If You Can

Jumping from shadow to shadow,
Foolishly looking for a place
In the sun--
Pretty little girls
Will look for love anywhere.
But it's just another space,
Another face,
A patient whisper in the dark,
In the hopes of taking away the pain--
But the game doesn't stop here,
Because each truth is not the same.
Exchange one lie for another,
Because it doesn't really matter
Anymore,
Even if you say that it should--
Because when silence shouts,
It never makes a sound.
Release the tension,
Forget the past,
The pain--
Give all your troubles
To the night,
To me.
Just remember,
That you've got to catch me
First,
Catch me if you can,
Jumping from shadow to shadow.
