Shadowplay - Emma Blackery

I got a headache

I guess my wisdom teeth didn’t quite cut through

When I thought they did

So go and fetch me an aspirin

I hope I don’t seem desperate to seem fine

Even if I change my mind

Well, maybe if I put my hands

Up to this light

What do you see?

Is it what I’m trying to create?

Or is it something that’s preconceived

From the days when you thought you knew me?

So tell me where you want me

Cos I go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Where you want me to be

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Cos I always, always

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

It’s shadowplay to me

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

I got a new plan

Instead of tearing this old version down

And starting off from scratch

Just do what all the rest did, call it 'reinvented'

If I play my hand

And all the puppets underneath sing along

And don’t bring up my past

All the lies that I told just to paint myself golden

I know I’m coming down from the ceiling

And I’m down in the gutter

So tell me where you want me

Cos I go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Where you want me to be

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Cos I always, always

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

It’s shadowplay to me

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Well, maybe if I put my hands

Up to this light

What do you see?

Is it what I’m trying to create?

Or is it something that’s preconceived

From the days when you thought you knew me?

So tell me where you want me

Cos I go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Where you want me to be

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Cos I always, always

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

It’s shadowplay to me

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes

Go where the money goes, go where the money goes
