Shadow Man - Lucy Schwartz

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
