lyrics

Well, when I walk
When I say my name
When I stalk, oh Lord
When I play the game
Oh, I get shivers
I’m not quite myself
Lines I deliver
They sound like someone else

But when I turn around
I swear I can’t see no face
Oh, and my shadow ain’t got no fingerprints to erase

How I survive
Bright-eyed and shaking hands
Available always
Happy to meet demands
But is it for me
Or out of my control?
Well, there go my friends
So I’m out the door

Well, as I move along
And I’m playing all these different roles
Yeah, my shadow he may look like me, but he’s got no soul

Sometimes I run
To get a little bit closer
I’ll find some dark room
Where I’m a little bit closer
Oh no, when out of nowhere
Here come the lights again
Ah, and he’s moving in, he’s got the permanent grin
And I’ve got, I’ve got, I’ve got no choice

So though I’ll put up resistance
And I’m never on time
Oh, my shadow don’t walk behind me, he’s within my mind

Yeah, when I feel like I’ve lost him
And he’s gone for good
Oh, my shadow don’t keep much distance though I wish he could

Oh, how I wish he could
Oh, yeah I wish he could
Oh, how I wish he could
