Queensryche - Walk in the Shadows (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-kfA4mg5Is)

I believe the song resembles my life because of mainly these lyrics.

"You can't stay away, you need me. I need you." This resembles a person that was very important to my life in my early childhood, her name was Trinity. We were best friends in a non-sexual way for many years, but she moved. She later moved back here after about 2 years though, since then she has moved away. I doubt I will ever see her again. I though soon after that became best friends with a boy in elementary school, our friendship lasted from kindergarten to fourth grade (We stopped being friends over Chess Club...). Which leads me into the line - "When the fire starts the pain's too much for your mind. You need attention, what's good is only mine"

"You say it's over now What's done What's through" (Thought this would be a good line to put here.

This, to me, resembles the fact that I didn't know who to turn to, he was the only one I could talk to and I was scared, I didn't know who I could trust to share my secrets with. Two years later though, in sixth grade, I became friends with him again. Now though, in my freshman year of high school, he is moving away. He is still my closest friend. Now this line comes into play "You say you don't feel safe alone tonight. Cause you feel the pressure building in your head"

Now this last line is a really good one to end this whole story or whatever I've written on.

"We'll walk in the shadows
By day we'll live in a dream
We'll walk in the shadows
One day you'll be with me
If only you believe..."

I think it means that one day, me and my best friend Chris will be able to meet each other again in real life, not over a computer screen across the country from each other.

If you made it through this whole slab of words, I appreciate it that you read the whole thing :)

Try listening to Edguy if you're into that sort of thing.
