Orphan


does anybody really want to know the story of a life
when it doesn't turn out just right
when it still is one long sleepless night

does anybody really want to care enough to understand
how fairy tales get out of hand
when darkness covers wonderland

and all you ever wanted was to love
and to be loved by someone else
and all you have left is yourself

a woman can create kids to go on
but without kids to anchor you
it is so easy to be gone
without a friend who cares to know what's true
where have you been
what do you know
what did you do
who are you?


does anybody really want to know enough to be a friend
beyond the superficial smile
who's gonna walk that final mile

does anybody really want to care enough for family
what is unconditional love
when it's all you ever dream of

and all you ever wanted was to love
and to be loved by someone else
and all you have left is yourself

a family connects you to this life
but without that to anchor you
it is so easy to be gone
without someone who cares to know what's true
where have you been
what do you know
what did you do
who are you?


does anybody really want to know how lonely life can feel
when nobody knows who you are
when you are no one's shining star

does anybody really want to bear the burden of the truth
that every orphan lives each day
to belong nowhere

...



and all you ever wanted was to love
and to be loved by someone else
and all you have left is yourself

a man alone can create fantasy
and fool the world with a smile

it is so easy to be gone
with nobody who cares to know what's true
where have you been
what do you know
what did you do
who are you?
