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 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 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 long to be  
A shadow on the wall  
I would make no sound at all  
At all
