Lonely Rider

Who's got no one to hold
Who's forgot how to smile
Who's friends have gone cold
Who walks a ragged mile
Who's laid love to waste
Whose days are like years
Whose roads have become
Circles down avenues of fear

Who argues with destiny, has compassion for strife
As waters of negativity drown the meaning of life
Who's traded his youth for those streets of desires
Who bet on the truth and lost to a world full of liars

Passing puppets on a string, passing through the machine
Who steals all his dreams and leaves him with nothing
He traded his silver spoon, adrift on the ocean
Facades a new moon, as ancient as the sun

He floats through the air, his poor feet have no rest
His arms wave despair, his joy is regret
Deep eyes shine not on things, but the heart full of wonder
When he tries to climb a mountain, he's dragged down by the wind

His light's all but shot, his name they forgot
Those tears in his pocket, can they save his spirit
Oh, the sorrow of the lonely rider
The lonely rider
The lonely rider
