Faces Without Shadows

by Brian Harris

/
1.
In the chill embrace of the neon night, Faces without shadows, all take flight. In the fake rain and concrete streams, Standing in the shadows like fashion memes. (Chorus) Faces without shadows, In the alleys and the trash Faces without shadows Sinning for cash Lurking in the gloom where the jukebox hums, Smoke rings, music bass and drums. More concerned with living out their style Faces without shadows and ghostly smiles (Chorus) Guitar strings weep, like a Beatles refrain, Echoes of a city, in the boring rain. Lost to sense there’s little exception, Faces without shadows, without their redemption. Sullen streets no one forgets, shadows have no regrets In the glow of the lights, the city silhouettes Faces without shadows, there’s words on a wall, In the offbeat rhythm, where the mighty fall.

I’ve been a prisoner of the driving rain Pitter patter on my window pane Got a head full of molasses Don’t you come round here again You know my life wouldn’t be quite as tragic If you didn’t dare bat those long eyelashes You’ve been over the line for far too long It no longer matters who’s right or wrong Been sitting here thinking about what you said Been sitting here drinking since you cut me dead Can’t stand that driving pounding rain Don’t want to be part of this trouble again I used to think the clouds would blow away But then there came this stormy day I would swear the sky always used to be blue my secret ray of sunshine was always you Now the sky is permanently grey Because I forced you to run away Can you see me, I’ve lost my way I’m just a sore loser what more can I say? You’ve been over the line for far too long It no longer matters who’s right or wrong You crossed the line between lies and truth You’re standing there the living proof I’ve been a prisoner of the driving rain Pitter patter on my window pane Got a head full of molasses Don’t you come round here again

About the hearts she's captured with her spell, She's a modern-day Vampirella, can't you tell? (Pre-Chorus) She's more than that which meets your eye, A Vampirella in an alluring disguise. She'll take you for a wild goose ride, Through the city streets, shuffling by her side. Chorus) Oh, she's a mystery in motion, deeper than the ocean. If you can't resist her arms, She'll leave you breathless with her charms. But behind those eyes so cold, Lies a story best left untold. She's a puzzle, hard to solve, Is it worth trying to resolve. Chorus) Oh, she's a mystery in motion, deeper than the ocean. If you can't resist her arms, She'll leave you breathless with her charms. In the city's shadows, she silently roams, Crawling from the gutter, she finds her home. But when the night fades away, She'll vanish in the cold light of day Chorus) Oh, she's a mystery in motion, deeper than the ocean. If you can't resist her arms, She'll leave you breathless with her charms.
