The Shadow Life

from Columbia by The Daily Pravda

/

lyrics

When the shadow lives called for me
I was not open
To the fear they make and destroy
Though I’d soon be

When my shadow life took its form
It was a movie
Every memory in replay
An endless reel

It’s the fix our parents all fell for
Ask your dad if he was on it
Ask your dad if he was there at all

I’ve been counting time since I was born
I left Mom too soon I crave the shadows
Looking back I turned to salt
And outlived you all

When the shadow lives came for me
I was not older
When you sleep alone for centuries
You don’t get older

Married to the ground you don’t grow
Like your dad you’re never honest
Like your dad you’re never there at all

about

The Daily Pravda Boston, Massachusetts

Rock music, post everything. Set in Boston and sometimes the West. Q: Glam without the glitter? A: Seventies without the beards. We play both kinds of music. There's nothing else to do.

Influenced by the New Romantic Post-Punk family tree (Suede, Echo and the Bunnymen, Smiths, Psychedelic Furs), American indie (Pixies, Sunny Day Real Estate), and glam classics like Bowie and Queen.
