Those Poor Bastards

Lyrics to Shadows Fall



I went out walkin' beneath that wainin' moon

got tired of sittin' with my memories in an empty room

I looked down and I couldn't help but notice



Shadows fall, wherever I go

shadows fall, in the dirt or snow

shadows fall, wherever I go

shadows fall



I took a six gun and aimed it at my head

the birds were singin' but I couldn't tell what they said



If I had a heart, it'd break in two

if I still had tears, they'd fall for you

but all I got is my shadow on the floor



The dog went limpin' down that endless road

I took my six gun and I shot that poor beast down

I watched him fall and it, it made me feel so hopeless



Shadows fall, wherever I go

shadows fall, in the dirt or snow

shadows fall, wherever I go

shadows fall



If I had a heart, it'd break in two

if I still had tears, they'd fall for you

but all I got is my shadow on the floor
