Red Dust Shadow

Lights are out on neon drive
Unprotected in my bed
Behind the walls it comes alive
Shoots again into my head

I see the red dust shadow
In the corner of my eye
Another child is calling
No, no, where did my daddy go
He's flown, I'm alone
When I grown up, I'll fly too
Take these things, fold your wings
Words can't bring you back

It's been this way forever
Everything I though was mine
Been haunted by reminders
Since nineteen-sixtynine

I keep the shadow walled in
In the deepest part of me
And still the child is calling
No, no, why did my daddy go
Away, none will say
When I wake up I'll know

Tears I tried so hard to hide
Always break inside
Take these things and fold your wings
Words can't bring you back
