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
