Flies in your window Junk in your mail Some ragged old sorrow Hot on your trail No-one comes to you Not even in your dreams There ain't nothing moving through you It's all as bad as it seems She is a shadow Of something you wanted How badly you wanted it It still drives you insane You're a dirty man to want her And you were junk for letting go You're a fool to even wanna be around her Those other people you don't even wanna know You can't hold up in Close to your heart You can't hold up in You just tear things apart You better leave Leave a reed shadow A late night reed shadow To the ivory room You better leave Leave a reed shadow A late night reed shadow To the ivory room She is a shadow Of something you wanted How badly you wanted it It still drives you insane
