Whitey - Pick Up Your Shadow lyrics
[Whitey - Pick Up Your Shadow lyrics]
Where is the man who held it all?
I lost him, somewhere in the night
I tried to pick my shadow from the ground
It reached back up and pulled me down
And put it's hands across my eyes
It told me:
I i am a walking ghost
In my ragged clothes with my empty hands
I i saw the parasites
I saw the socialites i saw the secret plans
I (Ahh) i am a walking ghost
In my ragged clothes with my empty hands
I (Ahh) i saw the parasites
I saw the socialites i saw the secret plans
The fading ones fall through the cracks
I watch their shadows climb their backs
And ride them straight into the ground
Drag them down, so as I walk
I watch another walking along
Who plays a part in all that I've done
And just repeats a simple song:
’You were wrong, you were wrong' it told me:
I (Ahh) i am a walking ghost
In my ragged clothes with my empty hands
I (Ahh) i saw the parasites
I saw the socialites i saw the secret plans
I i am a walking ghost
In my ragged clothes with my empty hands
I i saw the parasites
I saw the socialites i saw the secret plans
Go where you go
All the words that I don't know
All the lines that I don’t mind
You're as lonely as a song without a sound
Never change, never go
Watch the story as it's told
From a world without a sound
(I see the secret plans)
From a world without a sound
(I've seen the secret plans)
I've seen the secret plans
I've seen the secret plans
