Shadow Man Lyrics by Trace of Lime

I Know It’s Nothing, but I’m Happy It’s Something

2014

You make your skin made of mirror
But that just eats your mind away
Let's go and melts like all the water
When did the blue skies all turn grey?
And you're running
But there no race to run
Oh you got nothing to prove to yourself
All these bodies keep on floating
With the salt on their tongues
Oh, keep your eyes to the ground
Hold your money to your mouth
Because you ain't got much to say
You'd rather follow in the footsteps
Of the path that won the game
But when the man comes down to shoot you, will he remember your name?
Oh no, you sold your soul for fame
This unstable head is filled with smoke brought by the reflection of those who stand close
We're at the top of the mountain
And you're still stuck at the bottom
And you're dying
But there's no death to die
You got nothing to prove to yourself
All these bodies keep on floating
With the salt on their tongues
Oh keep your eyes to the ground
Hold your money to your mouth
Because you ain't got much to say
You'd rather follow in the footsteps
Of the path that won the game
But when the man comes down to shoot you, will he remember your name?
Oh no, you sold your soul for fame
