Deus Ex Machina (The Shadow Song)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The curtains slice the rays of sun
That sneak into my bedroom
Like bars on my wall
Salt water saturates
The carpet under me
I haven't got much sleep at all
And when the morning calls
I'm calling back to her
We spent our nights out watching shadows walking
I can't tell if I've become one too
I let myself go numb
It only made thing worse
Splitting my time between shadows and light
Unaware of the difference
The trumpets still ringing in my head
Crunch sand between my teeth
Sandpaper tongues can't speak
Don't think ill ever speak again
And when the morning calls
I'm calling back to her
We spent our nights out watching shadows walking
I can't tell if I've become one too
Don't let yourself go numb
It only made things worse
