Shadow on the Wall

At the end of the day, watching the sun go down

I find myself standing here alone

When the moon lays its shadows on the ground

That's when my memories start to roam

Now there's an empty space beside me

Where I used to pull you close at night

And the quiet is the only thing

That gets me through till morning light

I am seen, though you don't see me

I am more than just a memory

I'm not a ghost, I'm not a shadow on the wall

I'm the one still standing after all

Alone, but somehow standing after all

You never saw the simple things

Lost inside your complexities

Even when your eyes were open

You refused to see the truth in me

When I spoke, you never heard me

When I broke, you didn't care

Every time I tried to reach you

It felt like speaking into empty air

I am seen, though you don't see me

I am more than just a memory

I'm not a ghost, I'm not a shadow on the wall

I'm the one still standing after all

We once made love in the morning light

But that fire faded far from sight

Now there's only reflections left of the me you never recognized

And I'm finally saying my goodbyes

In the dark hush of the morning

Just before the rising sun

I finish up my dreaming

To see the world with eyes made new

Another long day comes and goes

But I'm breathing steady on my own

I am seen, though you don't see me

I am more than just a memory

I'm not a ghost, I'm not a shadow on the wall

I'm the one still standing after all

I see your face in the shadow of the moon

Flickering faint like an echo, fading soon

But it's fading, fading away

I'm not a ghost

I'm not a ghost

I'm not a ghost

Fading away

I'm not a ghost
