A little lifetime has gone by But I'm still sat here waiting For a forgotten little hope A rotten helping rope To come my way A trace of smile has graced my face (Like) a little man whose felt disgrace I'll leave it all behind I'll empty my little mind Once again From the pain (I've) been searching but never found The peace of mind you preach Like a helpless little shadow I'm growing so tired of me Like a desperate little boy Searching for a better toy I'll hide behind romances And play the happy man again You think you'll last forever? (Or) be remembered for the things you've done You're a little mad It's a little sad The way you see Your little lifetime has come to an end There's so little left to defend I'm sorry it's a bit late You need a bit more faith To play again
