Look at how free they are
Look at her she's a real work of art
How could I measure up to them
No one will ever see me
No one will ever want to be me
Cause I am a shadow boy
I'll follow you around until I go back into space
No need to frown cause light will just take my place
I'll pray for you cause you're the one with the face
I never mattered anyway
I hate the shape I am but I get tired if I play pretend
And I hate the feeling of discomfort
I hate the life I live of needing somebody to hide behind constantly
Oh, I just wish I was whole
I'll follow you around until I go back into space
No need to frown cause light will just take my place
I'll pray for you cause you're the one with the face
I never mattered anyway
I'll change with you but I still am a blank
But as soon as you're not lookin'
I'll go back to bein' the same
I wish it wasn't true
But what more can a shadow do
What more can a shadow do
I'll follow you around until I go back into space
No need to frown cause light will just take my place
I'll pray for you cause you're the one with the face
I never mattered anyway
I never mattered anyway
Never mattered
