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 Thanks to thudord@yahoo.com
