Shadow people, what's in their head? In the car next to you, when the light turns red Could be thinking of love, might be thinking of hate I guess it pretty much could go either way
Shadow people, in shadow land
That one's thinking of great art And eloquent words That one's strapped on a gun And joined up with the herd That one's saving up water Got some food stored away For the war that is coming on the judgment day
Shadow people, in shadow land
And this one carries a gun for the USA He's a 21st Century man And he's scary as hell 'Cause when he's afraid He'll destroy everything he don't understand
Well I ain't on the left And I ain't on the right I ain't even sure I got a dog in this fight In my time of need In my time of grief I feel like a shadow's falling over me
Like shadow people, in shadow land Shadow people, in shadow land
Waiting for the sun to be straight overhead 'Til we ain't got no shadow at all
