Wandering Child

In a lonely dream a boy goes walking

Drowned in shame, drunken with emotion

He says his world is just an ocean

Says his poor heart too many times been broken

The bones in your closet

Once bore the skin of your fathers

Guess that means it's out of your hands

Or you're too tired, too tired to bother

Help me now, save the wandering child

Now that you're broken, who'll clean up this mess

Now that your vision is blinded, I guess

You say where do I fall, now that my strength is gone

And who do I tell, I've done nothing wrong

Float upon the river till the water runs still

Dive to the bottom-got to drink from the well

Till I find out who I am, till I find out who I am

Now that there's no one to show me

Help me now, save the wandering child

Help me now, save the wandering child

In a lonely dream a boy keeps walking

Drowned in shame, drunken with emotion

He says his kill-it is his crown

Says his angels are no longer looking down

A horse and a monkey, no kids and no wife

A hell of a way for a hero to spend his life

Time to unearth the worm

Let this bridge fall down and burn

Help me now, save the wandering child

Help me now, save the wandering child

Help me now, save the wandering child

Help me now, save the wandering child
