Lucy Schwartz Shadow Man
Midnight comes, a thousand suns
Light fire to the sky
You’re just a shadow in this land
Don’t pretend, well aren’t you
Each day repeats, the same routine
You don’t bother asking why
You’re just a shadow of a man
Don’t pretend, well aren’t you
See that shadow man over there
Man in the mirror staring at you
See that shadow man if you can
‘Cuz it’s barely a man staring at you
Thinking back to your father’s laugh
He’d say, boy I could care less
You’re just a shadow of a man
You couldn’t stand, well aren’t you
The hopes you keep inside your dreams
Are anybody’s guess
You’re just a shadow of a man
You understand, well aren’t you
See that shadow man over there
Man in the mirror staring at you
See that shadow man if you can
‘Cuz it’s barely a man staring at you
Oh, oh, oh
Whose gonna save you when
When you can’t
Shadow man
Whose gonna save you now
Tell me how
Shadow man
See that shadow man over there
Man in the mirror staring at you
See that shadow man if you can
‘Cuz it’s barely a man staring at you
