A zoo of shiny toys made him strong Among the other boys But time is not on his side He’s too big to hide once more In his doll house made of gold The sparkling in their eyes Made his soul feel so cold All his life floats down a river With his heart on to deliver He walks alone through the night Glass and stones, steel and light
No one needs me, no one hears me No one even knows my name A river talks to the sea A tree sings to the light The world is calling your name It’s your very own bloody game This is your very own dark night
His past loos like a stump But the heat in his words Made them blow the trump To his parade of frozen tears He still walks on through the night No need to rush to reach the river side Will she be waiting still And did her love survive Did the darkness steal her will Or did the years eat her alive
No one loved her, on one heard her No one even knew her name She was waiting through the years For his parade of frozen tears
