Solitary Man Lyrics

Solitary man

Solitary place

Solitary eyes

In a solitary face

Solitary life

Born to die

Out of tune

Passes by

The outside world

It frightened him

So he locked it out

Wouldn't let it in

He turned away

Hid instead

Behind the walls

Inside his head

Was it safety in solitude you saw

And did you ever find what you were looking for

I wonder who you are and what you were before

You became a solitary man

Solitary house

Solitary Street

Solitary room

Where, old ghosts meet

An old wall clock

Ticks and tocks

Strikes and chimes

Laughs and mocks

Seldom seen

He'd come and go

Never stopped

To say hello

Shuffled by

Never mixed

Broken bonds

Never fixed

Solitary town

Solitary nights

Midnight Streets

Neon lights

Solitary world

Cold, grey dawn

Daylight creeps

A New day born

Solitary death

No one came

No one even

Knew his name

No one cried

He wasn't missed

He just ceased

To exist.

Solitary man I wonder what you saw

Or if you ever found what you were looking for

I wonder who you were or what you did before

To become a solitary man

Solitary man

Solitary face

Solitary life

Left no trace
