Just Shadows involves someone who is disillusioned by the modern world.
It was first performed by the band at White Eagle Hall in Jersey City on August 14, 2021.
[Verse 1]
Delivery, mouth watering
Optimized for pleasure, it seems
I fucks with it not
It can't be helped, thy police state
Fodder to a vast database
Under influence
Trash goes in green, glass goes in blue
This heart of mine's audience, too
Pesky inner voice
[Chorus 1]
Then suddenly, I am alone
In the truest sense of the word
With nothing else to hear or watch, just shadows
Like an inmate that's finished his term
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
My merry way, on it, I saw
Civilization rise and fall
Now you've gone and done
Algorithm waltz sets the pace
Indicates an authentic taste
Tell me what I love
No cleaning charge, no shipping fee
Holy and hosed off like a beast
Economic crash
[Chorus 2]
Then suddenly, everything's calm
And there's black winter mud on your feet
And the thick net of fibers that you passed through
Are like a memory you dragged to delete
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Amazon fire, twenty percent off
Global cost, vast species death
Suggested for you
Curated life agrees with me
Programmed to know when I should sleep
And when to wake up
Preferences set, authorizing
Life is not as modern as it seems
Can't pick who you love
