Lyrics

I kept all my promises
Made promiscuous
I wish you'd feel it too
The way i see things through
I hope you do

In the shadows watching the light
Calling out to your side
In the shadows watching the light
Seeing it hit your side
In the garden craving your touch
Maybe it's too much

Come on now, make it real
As real as i want it too feel
Sit now, get it all out
In to the tide
Getting all the time
I wish to see it in your neck

In the shadows watching the light
Calling out to your side
In the shadows watching the light
Seeing it hit your side
In the garden craving your touch
Maybe it's too much

Love the mysterious, edgy music and the intriguing, evocative lyrics. "In the shadows watching the light" is an awesome line. Great skirmishing!

Nice consistent rhythmic beat, echoing vocals and overall mysterious quality. I love it. Nice job.

Oozes era piece, angst, and craving on the page well; surges dark and integral in song, all too good not to read and hear. Dug it!

I love the mysterious sound. With the echoes and big snare, it’s giving me a 1982 feeling.

I feel like I fell back 40 years into a smoke-filled 80s goth club of my youth. (I mean, I was too square to ever actually really go to one, but this captures the feel of those in my imagination perfectly.) The sound is terrific, the tone of the vocal performance *so* on point, the churning bass and jagged guitar so perfect; this is a stunningly authentic summation of the era perfectly, and a really catchy, lyrical song to boot. Excellent!
