"The Shade" is a 1930s female superhero in Unto Dust: A Mindfire Prequel. As my lyrics in this song show, she thought she was the only super-powered being around and used her telepathy sparingly to not draw undue attention to herself. She's kind of an anti-hero, not going by a strict set of rules, just a general morality. It made her an interesting character to write, especially once she meets Steve and Sue (who do follow superhero rules established by the early 1990s). I made this in 1930s Jazz style with female lead vocals from that time period.
