Shadows on the wallnShadows in the depth of his facenShadows taking everybody's placennParis was a young man, he wore his hair up in a tricknHe quit the house made of roses and rose flavoured spitnParis with a dagger on his mind and romance in his handnTough and hard, in the yard, now nothing but a stranger in a strange landnnSocrates in swaying the youth away nBranches thick with heat and syrupy decay nPicks up a book commands him to readnThe part where he kisses him on the roofnBreaking dawn, woe be gone, hit the dope nAnd hope they become pure and aloofnnParis glittering in the war forced to competenThey all tried to bully him, buy him, score it for cheapnHungry boy, he's a wolf, falls down, and bricks a sheepnSays, you're gold for a moment but goldnIsn't anything you can keep.
Lyrics by Apostle of Hustle
