Shadow of a Man Video (MV)

There's a shadow of a man that's been following me around
He looks just like I used to and he sounds just like I sound
He's staring through my windows and he's writing on my walls
Walking in my footsteps and answering my calls

He's subtle in the daytime but he's everywhere at night
When I look around I see him, when I don't he's in plain sight
So I opened all my windows and I unlocked all my doors
Hoping like a fly inside he'd come again no more

Damn this quiet room
And the ghosts that haunt me too
I won't lie but I can refuse
That an honest man can't hide the truth, no
Shadow of a man, I am you

There's a shadow of a man who steals my light away
And I want it back so badly, but I don't know what to say
Cause I'm tangled like a spider spun in his own web
I am the lone provider of these shadows in my head

Now some red like the devil
And others soft like rain
Some run 'round the riverbend
And some are sweet like cane

But the hues are always changing
And my story's still unread
The only thing that's certain
Are these shadows in my head

Damn this quiet room
And the ghosts that haunt me too
I won't lie but I can refuse
That an honest man can't hide the truth, no
Shadow of a man, I am you

There's a shadow of a man
Here sprawled across my floor
Watching every move I make
I just don't know what for

And I hear those bells a-ringin'
Yeah I hear them loud and clear
But it's not those bells a-ringin'
It's these shadows that I fear

Now the mornings here are quiet
So I'll wait until the dawn
And that man you knew so long ago
Come sunrise will be gone

And you'll know it when you see me
'Cause I'll be riding with the wind
My shadow right beside me
My unforsaken friend

Damn this quiet room
And the ghosts that haunt me too
I won't lie but I can refuse
That an honest man can't hide the truth, now
Shadow of a man
I am you
