Shadow On the Wall

Gone, it's hard for me to see when I'm wrong
It's hard for me to weep when I'm strong
But I could never sleep when you're gone
Oh, but still
If you were gonna crucify me
I wouldn't want nobody to see
'Cause you could kick me hard when I'm down
Down, down, down

I don't wanna be nobody's fool
I've played that part so many times before
How I long to be
A shadow on the wall?
I would make no sound at all
And when the sun goes down
A shadow on the wall
It cannot be seen at all, at all

Over it
Hey, it's not that you would mess with my head
I believe that you believe what you said
You think you know me best and you care
But that's not fair
'Cause I don't really want to be safe
It must have been the way I was raised
Sleep with one eye open I say
Hey, hey, hey

I don't wanna be nobody's fool
I've played that part so many times before
And how I long to be
A shadow on the wall?
I would make no sound at all
And when the sun goes down
The shadow on the wall
It cannot be seen at all, at all, no

Oh, how I long to be
A shadow on the wall
I would make no sound at all, at all
