Lyrics

Life is more than spit and dust It's shiny chrome collecting rust Remembering when the lights would shine Down Main Street doing 99 Times were good, but times get hard Park you in the old junkyard Well, young ones pass and their lights fall On you, leaving a shadow on the wall A shadow on the wall Am I spirit, am I dirt When heart and soul can both be hurt? Which is it now, can I choose? Can I win, can I help but lose? Am I just dreaming again Can I go out as whole as I came in? When eternal light on me does fall Am I more than just a shadow on the wall? A shadow on the wall You turn the corner, I don't follow The street light proves that I'm not hollow An endless, holy, mirrored hall Or just a shadow on the wall? Life is just a mockingbird It laughs at screams that go unheard It dances right above your head And echoes dumb shit that you said About the crazy times that you knew would end The dreams that you once called your friends You can't find the bird, but you hear its call You know it's just a shadow on the wall A shadow on the wall
