One of My Favorite Songs

[sculpey]

This is from the 80's band Shriekback. I'm not sure if they're around anymore. I was always fascinated by their lyrics. This from a song called "Dust and Shadow"

Like the falling leaves and the shifting past
Sometimes the treasured things are not the things that last
And we know where we stand---between fear and desire
With one fist raised in anger, with one foot in the fire

We are dust and a shadow under the naked light
We are dust and a shadow, wishing that everything stood still tonight
We are dust and a shadow, the dream of history
We are the hungry ghosts, crying "Remember me, remember me"

All the Pride and Shame, all the bone and glass
These kind of fragile things were never gonna last
Oh pretty little Boy, and you my millionaire
When the time comes you go alone, leave the light on at the top of the stairs
