A little boy looking for someone close
Who had never cared for him at all
Scarred for life with mem'ries he can't hide
As he lies broken against the wall

Stuck in the thunder with no place to go
Not wanted in the violence at home
The tears keep falling in his silent dream
He never knew he lived life alone

Chorus
--------
8 years on and the little boy is lost
Avoiding reality at all cost
A grown man who's moving on
Trying to forget all that's foregone
Overcoming addictions and fears
Becoming numb after all the tears

Sitting by a dirty window
Watching his home slowly fade away
To a new life and destination
To his new home and the place where he'll stay

Chorus
--------

His bag's been packed for ages
Just waiting on the ride
If feels like he's running away
All he wants to do is hide

Chorus
