They spiral down
They tilt his head back
To the flame filled sunset
Rise their guns high
As the darken falls
These are the days, boys
Shallow man
Shallow man
Eats in the doorways
With his head inclined
And he's always in decline
No one heals anymore
So he shrinks as they ride
Under vermillion sky
So it goes
Just a searcher
Lonely soul
The last of the dreamers
Shallow man
Shallow man
Speaks to the shadows
Moves his trembling hands
And he's always a little late
For the dawning of the day
So it goes
Just a searcher
Lonely soul
The last of the dreamers
[Chorus:]
Black eyed ravens They spiral down They tilt his head back To the flame filled sunset Rise their guns high As the darken falls These are the days, boys Shallow man Shallow man Eats in the doorways With his head inclined And he's always in decline No one heals anymore So he shrinks as they ride Under vermillion sky So it goes Just a searcher Lonely soul The last of the dreamers Shallow man Shallow man Speaks to the shadows Moves his trembling hands And he's always a little late For the dawning of the day So it goes Just a searcher Lonely soul The last of the dreamers [Chorus:] Explain Request ×
