lyrics

Sonny boy, where are you now?
Have your habits worn you out?
You brought ‘em joy, made them proud
Still you hid behind the crowd

Sonny boy, what have you done?
You really are your father’s son
Worn it down fending off the floods
But there’s no use in denying blood

The outside’s looking in
But there’s nothing left of me
In this struggle to be free
Manufacturing a world
To have and hold
What’s there left to lose?

Sonny boy, who are you now?
Feigning something that you’re not
Shape the mold within the ground
Unearth the truth to the hounds

The outside’s looking in
But there’s nothing left of me
In this struggle to be free
Manufacturing a world
To have and hold
What’s there left to lose?

The fear of letting down
Those you loved so dearly
So you slowed it down
But that don’t make it easy

The outside’s looking in
But there’s nothing left of me
In this struggle to be free
Manufacturing a world
To have and hold
Now there’s nothing left to lose
