However bright 
and positive my days

they're always there 
these shadows at my side, 
these messengers 
of doom and death

and even when 
I wish them gone 
and gone forgood

just like the guards 
for my security 
(I'm a celebrity 
you know) 
they're always there

I am not used 
to live with things 
that I don't choose myself 
so this, 
this really is 
a nuisance 
as you see

it's not for me 
this nearness 
of a fate 
I can't control.

I want it gone!
