The hand upon your shoulder
Grows colder everyday
But you never turn to face
All you hopeless lovers
Greater than the last
But you never quite the first
Well I used to find it funny
But I've forgotten how to laugh
I've been lurking in the dark
Plotting my escape.
Before it gets me down
I will leave this town
Some decide to run
But I will stay with you, my son
I've been chasing tails
Since I was a boy
It never seems to change
All you A-class soldiers
Longing for the heights
You'll never reach again
Well I used to find it funny
But I've forgotten how to laugh
I've been lurking in the dark
Plotting my escape.
Before it gets me down
I will leave this town
Some decide to run
But I will stay with you, my son
Before it gets me down
I will leave this town
Some decide to run
But I will stay with you, my son
