Big Country - Just a Shadow lyrics

rate me

It went so well for you

With a place right where you wanted and the ones to fill it to

But some blows break the spell

That it hits you every day until you need to hit as well

It's just a shadow of the man you should be

Like a garden in the forest that the world will never see

You have no thought of answers only questions to be filled

And it feels like hell

It all seemed fine for you

Till the struggle of ambition turned in violence upon you

Sometimes a landslide comes

If you're hiding in that avalanche you need a place to run

It's just a shadow of the woman you should be

Like a garden in the forest that the world will never see

And you have no thought of answers only questions to be filled

And it feels like hell

I know there is no need for what's been done

I know there is enough for everyone

Frustration brings a heavy hand to bear

And there's never been a hand

Did we ever have it good

While we lived in Eldorado did we find the gold we should

If it really was the truth

Why are faces filled with anger that should only shine with youth

It's just a shadow of the people we should be

Like a garden in the forest that the world will never see

You have no thought of answers only questions to be filled

And it feels like hell

I know there is no need for what's been done

I know there is enough for everyone

Frustration brings a heavy hand to bear

And there never is a hand outside that cares

Still the promise comes of living fit for all

If we only get our back against the wall

I look at backs that pushed the wall for years

Scarred by many knives and too much fear
