Shadow People
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.
Shadow people, will sing their heads
In the corner next to you
When the light is red
If you're thinkin' to look
You may be thinkin' at pain
I guessed that pretty much
It can call you away
Shadow people in a shadow land
Like I'm thinkin' at the great one
And the other comes worse
That one is trapped on a gun
And turned up with a herd
That one is set on the water
Got some food
For the war that's comin'
And the Judgement Day
Shadow people in a shadow land
And this one carries a gun for the USA
He's a 20'th century man
And he's scarry as hell
Cause he isn't afraid
He will destroy anything
You don't understand
When I aim at left
And I aimto the right
I ain't even sure
I got a dog in the spine
And I'm in need
I ain't got time to breathe
I feel like shadows are falling all over me
Like shadow people in shadow lands
Shadow people in shadow land
Shadow people in shadow land
Waiting for the sun to be split over there
I ain't got any shadow at all
