Shadow - Song Lyrics from the 90s

This one came out in pieces and is still a work in progress. I tried to record this when I moved to Venice Beach in 1994 but the people that I was working with turned out to be kind of creepy, so it was abandoned. I was experimenting with more of an electronic sound. I don't think it will end up that way. Most of my songs are written after reading something in the news or from a book. I can't remember where this one came from. It's probably just a concept piece. Dark but effective. 

Shadow

By Julie Gengo

I'm all alone
In the shadow I'm waiting, waiting
Chilled down to the bone
Some people think I'm crazy, crazy

Desolation's en vogue
But this is not my suicide
Feeling out the unknown
But I'm not crazy, crazy, crazy crazy

In the shadow I crawl
Crawl daddy over the big brick wall
In the shadow I crawl

I've met the demand
I won't be frightened anymore
Big man out of hand
You can't invade me, invade me

In this circumstance
Tomorrow won't get in my way
Now you understand
So don't invade me, invade me, invade me, invade me

In the shadow I crawl
Crawl daddy over the big brick wall
In the shadow I crawl

No thank you mam
Sugar fixes won't appease my appetite
Didn't ask for your hand
So pardon me if I don't appear polite

In the shadow I crawl
Crawl daddy over the big brick wall
In the shadow I crawl
Crawl daddy over the big brick wall
