Lyrics:
by a prolonged absence.
Your face becomes a shadow.
I miss you.
I miss you in my dreams.
That smile no longer feeds my soul.
Your voice becomes
Darlin, you can grow
A deceptive mind hides in the shadow
Let the light shine on in
However far away
Instead of faking smiles
You're faking OK
Feel
Give me a drink and I'll remember you
Ah, blow me a shadow from that smile
Roses are blooming down the avenues
Looks like I came home just in time
Was it a cold November in ‘79
The day you left the future and your troubles behind
You flew right by us without a warning
Didn't we just see you this
dun, he play by all the rules
That's why the house is his, the cars, all the jewels
Ya'll niggaz all are fools, your regular married with children
Dawg,
opens her door, peace of mind
Pretty eyes, sexy smile you light up my night
In the shadows, I'm drawn to your light
Oh, pretty eyes, if you only knew
Last night I had a dream that the world was changin'
Changin' by leaps and bounds
It started up in the bigger cities
And it's spread to the smaller
Look outside and suffer the sight
All resounding, covered in light
Light and blinding shadows
Drift by, burning
With wild eyes
I cry "They've flown
to the Masons
The Kush, the black push
Aborigines I love you, take back the bush
Oh, we are back on presidents
George was so irrelevant
But he did send
Though roses wilt
And petals fall
One by one, guilt
Is apparent on the wall
That I've built
To ignore the chance I missed with you
Your shine blinds
and I were made to live through more
Yeah
Shoutout to the most high, made a nigga so fly
Not a day goes by I ain't been that dude
You got that fire
and lifted high above the crowds below.
Spirit felt promises that wind the clocks of time,
and pass me by in a sudden rage of light.
In shadows I am
By-George she went around
I can swing a rope but hope to ride
In the shadow of a man twice my size
A man of God the real McCoy
Yeah mamas pray that your
The voices in my head are shadows, shadows
She comes to me, to tell me what they're after
Says it ain't the end boy but you best be careful,
Hiding in the shadows
Haunted by the sorrows
Drowning in the shallows
No hope for tomorrow
Hate now
Seems to be the theme of
Everyday now
The very currency
the lake
I felt the heat, know you can't use your shadow as your shade
Ya'll need to peep some style, everybody look the same
But what are we but followers
of dying first
Here I stand above her grave
With a smile on my face
Can't pretend that there's
Someone to blame
You'll be buried
By the monster you've made
our shadow behind
And we don't even stop to ask why
Blindsided by lies
Finally I've learned that I
Need to go on with a smile
I was stronger than I
okay ok
(Guitar rattle)
George
George
George
(I have called you by name)
In my soul
George yea
George I...
Byron in the soul
(I have called you
an unattended child you can't quite trust
But I'm tired of stepping on your shadow and feeling in the way
Yes I'm tired and by the middle of the morning I'm out
your face into the scanner
Everybody's hunted with a smile
Being processed by the boys
In their tatteredemalion uniforms
They look so nice
Wearing masks to hide the tears
Facing all my darkest fears
Haunted by your distant gaze
Lost inside this endless maze
In the shadows I remain
Shifting
Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down
The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below
Following their footsteps through
Happiness so lonely high on clouds and dreams
Oh please be nice
Hope it will be nice
Surrounded by shadows
Walking in the rain
Inside the traffic
