Lyrics/music by Adam Z Smith

Is it true?
A rumor spreads around you
Cut through
That cant be how they found you?
But don't come at me with your broken dreams
It won't help me understand
Diane

In a hunt for clarity
I traced your track into my memory
Where you wore your skin like a feral kind of beast
I
I couldn't understand what I had seen
Until you came at me in another dream
Just to drag me down again
Diane

All the same as the neighbors see
Eat the cake and drink the tea
Fall asleep to the same routine
Less human and more machine
NSAIDs put the pain at ease
Peroxide lets you go stain free

But I don't know what you've been sold to take your pride away
Scratches tear your arms and legs and panic twists your face
Shape shifting from night to day, the animal has been repaid

I place a call just to make amends
Help me try to understand
You reply by not answering
I don't know how to be your friend
Diane

Do you see?
I'm a wreck when you come visit me in my sleep
Floating on my breath, hunting like a beast
So don't come at me in a fucked up dream
Just to drag me down again
Diane x
Song Comments

Wavelength
Every so often a song comes along that excites a person, "Diane" fits the bill for me, met Nobody's Shapeshifter over on another site, production's tasteful and interesting, synth and EG a happenin' groove, the vocal's strong and charming, emotive and unusual, lyrics/story kinda like a novel, if this were Dire Straits back in the day all over the radio, kudos...
