Ian Perry - Shadows of the Skyline Lyrics




From the suburbs to the city
In cafes, bars and clubs
I worked to find a future
A good career and love
My head spinning round
With the pressure and the pace
The only thing I've known for sure
Is change...

I tried my best to fit inside
A world that was not mine
I bent and squeezed and changed my shape
Just to tow the line
And though old habits die
The hardest way
The only thing I've known for sure
Is change...

As shadows of the skyline
Stretch across this street
Swell into the alleyways
And call me
I take my coat and step outside
Deep into the freezing night
Alone, alone, alone
But for the company of night
Framed by shops, graffitied walls
And lit by evenings orange glow
I slip as if invisible
From scene to scene
And passing conversations...

I move amongst these buildings
Like a word inside a mind
On the edge of being spoken
And born to some new life
Though mid-winter comes
Soon the days will grow again
And the only thing I've known for sure
Is change...
