Shadow On The Wall

[mistresspaije]

Gone, it's hard for me to say when I'm wrong
It's hard for me to weep when I'm strong
But I can never sleep when you're gone
Oh, but still, if you were gonna crucify me
I wouldn't want nobody to see
'Cause you can kick me hard when I'm down
Down, down down
I don't want to 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 cannot be seen at all.
At all.
Old Friend, it's not that you would mess with my head
I believe that you believed what you've said
You think you know me best and you care
But that's not fair
Because I don't really want to be saved
It must have been the way I was raised
Sleep with one eye open I say
Hey, hey, hey
I don't want to 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
The shadow on the wall cannot be seen at all
At all
Oh, how I long to be a shadow on the wall
I would make no sound at all
At all
