Shadow Song

Screaming Trees

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

With the fallen shadows
