lyrics

the man he said he had a shadow
it drug that man into a battle
and when he died they took the body
and left the shadow hung in the tree

how many times have you asked the question why?
how many years have you held this pain inside?
are you insane to think that things will change with time?
are you to blame for feeling rage, compelled to fight?

the boy shot down without a reason
like the girl he didn't want that kind of attention
and if one day one is president
when they take the throne
will we rise up with them?
you know...we've paved these roads
but the change...the change is slow

how many times have you lied awake at night?
how many days have you lost your appetite?
is it a phase, can we erase sins of this kind?
do we remain forgotten names swept up by time?

the answer is blowin' in the wind
but the questions, they pull us in all directions
the dove washed ashore, she slept inside the current
she learned to sing, but never learned to listen
you know...we've paved these roads
but the change...the change is slow

old man take a look at my life
i’m not like you...no.
old man take a look at my life
i’m not like you...no.

LAMINATE PET ANIMAL
by SNOWMINE

This is the first in a series of weekly album reviews published by Andrew Dubber. If you haven’t already caught it, please check out his introductory post. There’s been talk of an 80s revival of one sort or another since long before the 80s even came to an end.
