Brandi Carlile - Shadow On The Wall lyrics

rate me

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 want 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 will make no sound at all

And when the sun goes down

The 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

How I long to be

A shadow on the wall

I will make no sound at all

And when the sun goes down

The shadow on the wall

It 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
