Shadow Girl - AD24 Version

A vision though an amber pane
A side-street dram shop in the rain
Hard-bit she trades on wit and winsome
She puts aside an empty chair
Her torn coat and her stalker stare
Fades back to brave away the symptom

Too soon to prove you'll be good
Too bruised to love me

Joined through the dead-drops
And chalk marks she'd drawn on the wall

Shadow girl you're rumored to be safe and alive
Shadow girl too bruised to say you'll be truly mine

This message etched in glass
Half-silvered mirror to the past
Shone votive wicks and gaslight vulgar
I'm just a brittle bit
That broke off with the sparking flint
She's left her tinder box uncovered

Lost at the dead-drops and crossed out the chalk marks
Erased every trace of the secrets you sold them

Shadow girl you're rumored to be safe and alive
Shadow girl too bruised be truly mine
Too bruised to say you'll be truly mine
