Youth Group - Shadowland lyrics

rate me

Released under watchful skies

into a town I didn't recognize

I was a tourist with no story,

lost in this purgatory

Escaped the smell of chalk and shame,

I pledged a classroom in my name

The PTA won't bless me

and the yearbook will assess me, yeah

I walked down these familiar streets,

they're filled with circus freaks

Your plans are as useful as baby's hand,

there's no planning in shadow, shadowland

Shadowland (eight times)

I chase you round the chimney stacks,

the burnt earth pressed into our backs

It was so dark I just don't know what I kissed

and I couldn't even see what I missed

You walked me across freedom fields,

my shadow was a forcefield

I want to float upon my memories,

not sink into the gloaming seas of shadowland

Shadowland (fifteen times)

Weight loss, first frost, valium, sink fast

Life coach, guru, I turn and I've found you<br><br>Thanks to thudord
