The Closets - Lustful Shadow Lyrics

Ain't nothing to flaunt, sporting D-list looks
Though your strategized swagger has me ever hooked
Though I remain a blubbering blob who looks a freak
Yet, you've sustained a articulated, formulated chic

Guess I've been a lonesome lustful shadow all this time
That strived to replicate the one I dreamt to be mine

Jealous of your second natured confidence and hope
While the essence of my existence lies on the tail of a rope
Fawning over your phrases and nuance of words
Even caught redhanded blushing when you give me the bird

Guess I've been a lonesome lustful shadow all this time
That strived to replicate the one I dreamt to be mine

I don't always bother processing lust that comes my way
But you halted all the dust that tried to shift my pulse into delay
Paralyzed by your gazing eyes as I'm locked into your stare
No further need to fantasize as my throbbing heartbeat blares
Showered with your subtleties as I hypothesize and guess
Beyond the blind spot I await to see what lies beneath your chest

Guess I've been a lonesome lustful shadow all this time
That strived to replicate the one I dreamt to be mine

I remember as I peered into your trancing glossy eyes
Whether mutual admiration lies reserved for you and I
We may not be innately similar in attitudes and taste
Though my soul stays open latitude, I remain an empty vase
You placed your every flower into my dirty soiled mind
Soon it dissolved the sour taste and put my rotten roots behind

Guess I've been a lonesome lustful shadow all this time
That strived to replicate the one I dreamt to be mine
