Gary Numan - My Shadow In Vain Lyrics
Stroll to the cafe
My God how time flies
I close up my brain
And another friend dies
Feel like nothing is mine
I could go back to crying
But now dying seems fine
So I hang from the ceiling
Or I sit on the air
Or rot in a corner
Until somebody cares
Faces at random
I'd love to be like me
If I could feel like you
Here am I, more roche five than pain
Here am I, just me and my walls to blame
Here am I, I really don't feel quite sane
Here am I, still searching for my shadow in vain
Lock my door I only think in black and white
I'll even try to look ashamed
Moving out of central
Somebody knows me well
Says he'll spill the whole story
He may be lying I can't tell
Meet me inside
I'll keep my head to the floor
And one hand on the handle
Of the mad/sane door
Here am I, more roche five than pain
Here am I, just me and my walls to blame
Here am I, I really don't feel quite sane
Here am I, still searching for my shadow in vain
Lock my door I only think in black and white
I'll even try to look ashamed
My shadow in vain
My shadow in vain
My shadow in vain
My shadow in vain
My shadow in vain

Exiled to my Grandparents house in 1979 for stealing from every fucking relative in my Rollodex...... I took Grandpa to the local record shop and bought this , he couldn't believe records cost $11 because apparently they used to cost about 15 cents ,, anyway,,, this record helped me survive the winter of 1979..... thanks Gary
Clay Diehl heck, I can't believe they cost that much in 1979..
This punk song rocks. Nice angry Les Paul guitar, energetic groove, drums bass and vocal. Very cool:-). Nice Dalek sounding outro hahahaha!!!!!
I would kill to see a Numan video from these days with the bright blond hair, the white Les Paul and a Marshall stack.
ock Rock Cyborg Rock!
