Lyrics
The Shadow
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 shadow follows me, follows me
Haunting, evil, dread
It’s like a breathing lobotomy
Turning blue to red
Not a hymn or rhyme
It’s a bastard screaming suicide
The shadow follows me, follows me
Haunting, evil, mind
You wanted sight for the blind?
We’ll start high, aim small, intuition arise
You want to live for the ride?
We’ll hop aboard the carousel
And let your ego subside
We’re gonna tame our shadow
It’s an eye for an eye
You know the pretty blown out voice
Using sin to get by
And I can almost taste the sweat
On the back of your neck
His tongue is clinging to your chest
In carnivorous jest
The lizard mind
Hey you
Hey you
Hey you
Standing over there
With a gaze to your toes
You know
The crutch is in your hand
Makes its way to your nose
I know
The pretty littles that get lost in the void
The shattered symbolism of a God fearing boy
The roots, they lay
Your hell to the bowels of serh are fate
In and out of!
Before you leave
The dark takes over
Hedon sound off!
So bend the light
You’ll see it’s over
My shadow
My shadow
In and out of
Before you leave
The dark takes over
Hedon sound off!
So bend the light
You’ll see it’s over
The shadow follows me, follows me
Haunting, evil, dread
It’s like a breathing lobotomy
Turning blue to red
Not a hymn or rhyme
It’s a bastard screaming suicide
The shadow follows me, follows me
Haunting, evil, mind
