The Boy Lives On
Once upon a time
There lived a lost and lonely boy
He'd walk alone around the playground
No one to talk to
No one but himself
He tried to make some friends
But it never worked in the end
Because they'd only twist his mind around
And mess with him instead
Point their fingers, call him names
Never let him join their games
Don't you underestimate the boy
He'd say
That's okay
I'm alright
I'm doing fine
And I'm living life
The way that I'm supposed to
Why the hell does it matter to you?
Now look at the boy
All grown up and looking good
Doing things that all the other kids
Never thought he could
They thought he would
End up like this
Without love and no first kiss
Just waiting on some shooting star to save him
But they were wrong
The boy lives on
He's feeling strong
And all the others still remember when he said
Oh when he said
That's okay
I'm alright
I'm doing fine
And I'm living life
The way that I'm supposed to
Why the hell does it matter to you?
That's okay
I don't mind
I'm off and away
Away from the blind
To another place where the sun will shine and show me
This hidden love of mine
Why the hell does it matter to you?
There lived a lost and lonely boy
He'd walk alone around the playground
No one to talk to
No one but himself
He tried to make some friends
But it never worked in the end
Because they'd only twist his mind around
And mess with him instead
Point their fingers, call him names
Never let him join their games
Don't you underestimate the boy
He'd say
That's okay
I'm alright
I'm doing fine
And I'm living life
The way that I'm supposed to
Why the hell does it matter to you?
Now look at the boy
All grown up and looking good
Doing things that all the other kids
Never thought he could
They thought he would
End up like this
Without love and no first kiss
Just waiting on some shooting star to save him
But they were wrong
The boy lives on
He's feeling strong
And all the others still remember when he said
Oh when he said
That's okay
I'm alright
I'm doing fine
And I'm living life
The way that I'm supposed to
Why the hell does it matter to you?
That's okay
I don't mind
I'm off and away
Away from the blind
To another place where the sun will shine and show me
This hidden love of mine
Why the hell does it matter to you?
