Lyrics
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.
Can't get back, can't remind you
We're closer now than I would want to be
They think it's easy if you just imagine
Before the dust will trip you up again
Choose the way that you want to go now
I'll meet you there, meet you there somehow
We leave behind all this worried puzzle
Wake from a dream, I knew you'd be there still
Don't you step into the shadows
Into a place where nobody goes
Through a gate where everything flows
With the fallen shadows
Down the street lined with dirt and plastic
When you appeared I just happened to be
In the midst of another nightmare
Taking me back just like I knew it would
Don't you step into the shadows
There's a place where nobody goes
Through a gate where everything flows
With the fallen shadows
In the dark there's no-one with me
There's no stars to warm my skin
I'd light a match if I could hold one
It's coming over me again
It's coming over me again, yeah
Let this feeling go on past us
Let this cage turn into rust
So many pieces and so many people
You'll never figure out just who I was then
Don't you step into the shadows
Into a place where nobody goes
Through a gate where everything flows
