Shellshot Songtext
von Nevermen

Like a bag of diamonds
Being struck by a crush
Photographs invisible
To a never, never, never man enough
Like a bag of diamonds
Being struck by a crush
Photographs invisible
To a never, never, never man enough

Like a
Like a
Like a
Like a
Like a
Like a


Fame came
To take the wonder from the camera for you
To put its box on that invention
To turn infection
To a backdrop with a flashbulb wrapping
Like a fly pepper for your sad eyes such
Stiff, stuck, empty husks

Alter snare your skin self in the celluloid conch
Shell shock
Show ′em the shell they want
Handsome, hollow and all harm
Alter snare your skin self in the celluloid conch
Shell shock
Show 'em the shell that they want
Shell shock
Handsome, hollow and all harm
Shell shock

Like a bag of diamonds
Being struck by a crush
Photographs invisible
To a never, never, never man enough
Like a bag of diamonds
Being struck by a crush
Photographs invisible
To a never, never, never man enough


And then after yellow aperture and little death
When you stress
When you clip your clock parts beneath your breast
And a flock of moths fly out of your chest
Is this not a sight of fit for child not suppressed?
Who are you to keep a murder with knowledge
Shuffling the frame
A cleverous jest
Who are you to take a forever in photos?
Who are you? Who are you? Who are you?

All full of things that photographs never reflect
Glam, gun, done, young and cut full of

Like a technical maniac
I wanna shoot you
Just like that
Like a technical maniac
I wanna shoot you
Yeah, just like that
Like a technical maniac
I wanna shoot you
Till the album drops

Like a bag of diamonds
Being struck by a crush
Photographs invisible
To a never, never, never man enough
Like a bag of diamonds
Being struck by a crush
Photographs invisible
To a never, never, never man enough

I wanna shoot you
Till the album drops
I wanna shoot you
Till the album drops
I wanna shoot you
Till the album drops
I wanna shoot you
Till the album drops
Oh, I wanna shoot you
