Lyrics:

Old Town behind us, I used to fly

Pour yourself a drink

That’s when I slide

Always looking for another way out

Never just at ease

When everybody settles down to revel

That’s when I have to leave

Staring down forever

Feels like more than I can take

This is all I am

Here in Everdene

All I ever wanted was a reason to believe

But I’ve been holding on to everything

As tightly as I can

Oh my god

I’m just a shadow of a man

And it’s more than I can hold

I watch as they sit still

With my green eyes

All that I wish that I could be

Makes me a liar

I’m moving like a snake among the weeds

Why am I sly?

I will never know what it means for you and I

Staring down forever

Feels like more than I can take

This is all I am

Here in Everdene

All I ever wanted was a reason to believe

But I’ve been holding on to everything

As tightly as I can

Oh my god

I’m just a shadow of a man

Cos I’ve stared over the edge

And I’ve seen where it leads

God what I would give

If I could only feel at ease

I been holding on too tight

Take this cup out of my hands

Oh my god

I’m just a shadow of a man

And it’s more can hold

More than I’ll can hold

When it’s quiet when it’s still

Go easy if you can

Sometimes I thank god

I’m just a shadow of a man

Cos I’ve seen over the edge

There’s reason to believe

I feel it pull too tight

Wrap its arms around me
