Boy In Rags

All your comeback conversation
Guilty trips are wearing thin
Tell me what’s the point in talking
When you know I’m not listening?
And everything you ever said
Went straight to the wind
Is it the land of the lost or the dead I’m living in?

Now boy you see those rags you’re wearing?
Don’t you care what people think?
You’d better buy yourself a new suit
If you want a chance of fitting in
And everything you ever said
Went straight to the wind
Is it the land of the lost or the dead I’m living in?

Surprise surprise! Guess what came to be
The boy who lives in rags is dying
From a lack of self belief

Now you say I need some eating
I’m looking dangerously thin
You can see my bones protruding
You can feel my spine under my skin
And everything you ever said
Went to the wind
Is this the land of the lost or dead I find myself in?

Surprise surprise! Guess what came to be
The boy who lives in rags is dying
From a lack of self belief
