He sits alone and waits for death cause he's got nothing left. And he screams out loud, can anybody hear me now? Anyone at all? But no one hears a sound. He spent his life face to face with the things he lost and never could replace. He doesn't believe in much at all these days, so he waits for the current to take him away. How could anybody bear that weight? How could you stand up straight, take it in stride and keep your head held high? He tried to face those fears, but it was all too clear that this emptiness would never subside. Is there no compassion here? Was it lost somewhere along the way? Just another tortured soul unable to make it's way through such a desperate world. So he sits alone and waits for death. He waits, cause he's got nothing left. And he screams out loud, can anybody hear me now? Anyone at all? Slipping into exodus. You're a coward, but not enough to disappear. Was it the end of everything that you've ever loved? Was it failure or defeat? Was it the distance or the lack thereof? Was it those nights, dragging on? No sleep. No relief would ever come. Was it regret? Was there anything you could've done? Was it the empty of alone, or never having strength to let it go? Is it everything that you've come to know and was it unavoidable? He spent his life face to face with the things he lost and never could replace. How could anybody bear that weight? So he sits alone, because he's come to know this world has teeth.
