You told me that you're all alone
And feeling bad, bad to the bone
You must keep it up, no matter what they do
If you think men don't cry, you must be blind
You've been a prisoner for your whole life
You cannot even remember your name

Hey you, don't say to me, you've never been a fool
Never cry, never lie, have you ever been afraid to die
Hey you, sometimes it's hard, it's hard to face the truth
It almost always brings us pain
Have you ever felt this pain before?

You shook my hand, you looked away
Are you afraid or maybe shy to contemplate your own mistakes?
You've been a victim of your fate
You're the only one who can really help yourself

You've been a prisoner for your whole life
You cannot even remember your name

Hey you, don't say to me, you've never been a fool
Never cry, never lie, have you ever been afraid to die
Hey you, sometimes it's hard, it's hard to face the truth
It almost always brings us pain
Have you ever felt this pain before?
