Is anybody out there?
There's no knock on my door
No one comes anymore
To this island
Trapped on memory lane
Caught in yesturdays rain
In the silence
I have looked in your eye
Calling your name outloud
But you look right through me
Like a ghost in a crowd
Just like a total stranger
Behind those walls of stone
I've been a missing person
Location unknown
Living like a total stranger
A nowhere man
You see I couldn't get a listed number
Living in a now man's land
Well did you take me for dead
Did you know I still bled
With desire
Hey I'm talking to you
But the words don't come through
On this wire
I'm a voice in the dark
Crying out to the ghost
So I reach out my hand
Like a man overboard
Just like a total stranger
Behind those walls of stone
I've been a missing person
Location unknown
Living like a total stranger
A nowhere man
You see I couldn't get a listed number
Living in a no man's land
I'm a voice in the dark
Crying out to the ghost
So I reach out my hand
Like a man overboard
Just like a total stranger
Behind those walls of stone
I've been a missing person
Location unknown
Living like a total stranger
Does anybody understand
You see I couldn't get a listed number
Living in a no man's land
Is anybody out there?
Is anybody out there?
Is anybody out there?
