Shadow's Like A Ghost Lyrics - Singles - The Gay Blades

So he stumbles in with a broken jaw and a bloody pair of shoes 

And a heart unbroken torn unspoken, fuck you attitude 

"Well you should be warned I'm cold to the core and 

I do just as i choose," 

With a pride half stolen hand rolled chain smoking street tough kind of truth 

But a bastard song won't make this up for you 

Oh, try to shake it off 

But my shadow's like a ghost and I won't pray for nothing 

Oh just to feel young 

So we cleaned him up, and we gave him love and what I thought was safe refuge 

And tried to warm his stupid core used to heart ache and abuse 

Well it seems to me as he fell asleep, some part of him let loose, 

The bitterness an empty net for memories he'd love to lose 

But a bastard son won't change himself for you. 

Tell me does it haunt you now 

Let me fill it up pass it all around 

Show us where the blood drips down to the ground
