🎸 Shadows on the Floor 🎸 Garage Rock Blues | Two-Person Band Energy | Raw Unpolished Truth

🎸 Shadows on the Floor | Gritty Garage Rock Blues Anthem

Welcome to Gunther Sound 💫

A raw, unpolished garage rock masterpiece with blues soul! "Shadows on the Floor" features raspy storytelling vocals, heavy fuzz guitar riffs, minimalist stomping drums, and explosive quiet-loud dynamics. This stripped-down two-person band sound captures authentic self-confrontation, breaking free from masks, and embracing raw truth—White Stripes-style garage energy with intentionally rough edges and lo-fi aesthetic that celebrates imperfection.

Lyric:

Shadows on the floor,
They know me better than before.
They stretch and bend with every move,
Got nothing left to lose or prove.
I've been running from the dark,
Wearing someone else's heart.
Traded honesty for peace,
Now I'm choking on the lease.
They say "man up, push it down,"
Wear your silence like a crown.
But the weight's too much to hold,
And I'm tired of being sold.

So tell it straight, no sugar coat,
Who's the man behind the ghost?
SHADOWS ON THE FLOOR,
Show me what I'm fighting for.
If I burn, let it be MY fire,
I won't drown to lift 'em higher.
Shadows on the floor...
I'm done keeping score.

I've been chasing ghosts for years,
Building walls from borrowed fears.
Every handshake felt like theft,
Gave away what little's left.
Learned to smile when it hurts,
Buried truth beneath the dirt.
They want the show, not the man,
So I played along, I ran.
But the mirror don't lie to me,
Shows the cracks I wouldn't see.
Now I'm staring face to face,
With the man I tried to erase.

No more hiding what's inside,
No more swallowing my pride.
SHADOWS ON THE FLOOR,
Show me what I'm fighting for.
If I burn, let it be MY fire,
I won't drown to lift 'em higher.
SHADOWS ON THE FLOOR...
I'm DONE keeping score.

If the truth's a bitter pill,
I'll swallow it, I will.
Rip the bandage off the wound,
I don't need to be immune.
Strip me down to bone and skin,
Let me OUT, let me IN.
No more masks, no more games,
I'll burn bright or go up in flames.

SHADOWS ON THE FLOOR,
I KNOW what I'm fighting for!
If I burn, it's MY desire,
I won't drown to build 'em higher!
SHADOWS ON THE FLOOR...
I AIN'T keeping score!
SHADOWS ON THE FLOOR,
I see it now — there's so much MORE.
Not the shine, not the fake applause,
Just the strength to know my flaws.
Shadows on the floor...
I won't crawl no more.
Shadows on the floor...
They don't scare me anymore...
