Intro:
   / /  

                                    
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 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

              
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
