Marcy Playground - The Shadow Of Seattle Lyrics

Rain
Like tin angels falling
Down
Like a mission and we're
Halfway there
From some old dried up
Fried forgotten town
Why
Won't they let us be ourselves
With our potential we
Could toe the line
And show the bastards up
With our divine
Light

Seize
All the records from the past
Hold for ransom all the artifacts
This ragged town protects
Them to the last
With lies

See them running heading
Homeward to Seattle

Deem
All the liars in your tribe
To be the fires on the
Western side
Of some old front we call
The war of art
Rain
Like tin angels falling
Down
Like a mission and we're
Halfway there
From some old dried up
Fried forgotten town
From some old dried up
Fried forgotten town
To some old dried up fried
Forgotten
Town

I still remember getting this album when I was 13 or so...20 years later and it's still amazing. Very underrated.

Same, and about the same age too. All their albums are good, but hadnt listened to this one in quite a while...its like a time warp back to the 90s. Good stuff!

I spent 50 years in Seattle and this song accurately describes the sad, little town.

It almost sounds like a nirvana song.

Rain 
Like tin angels falling 
Down 
Like a mission and we're

Halfway there 
From some old dried up 
Fried forgotten town 
Why

Won't they let us be ourselves 
With our potential we 
Could toe the line 
And show the bastards up

With our divine 
Light 
Seize 
All the records from the past

Hold for ransom all the artifacts 
This ragged town protects 
Them to the last 
With lies

See them running heading 
Homeward to Seattle 
Deem 
All the liars in your tribe

To be the fires on the 
Western side 
Of some old front we call 
The war of art

Rain 
Like tin angels falling 
Down 
Like a mission and we're

Halfway there 
From some old dried up 
Fried forgotten town 
From some old dried up

Fried forgotten town 
To some old dried up fried 
Forgotten 
Town
