Lyrics
He wakes up worried
Something's always wrong
He can't remember
He goes o-n and on
On and on
He gets confused
Holds his head in his hands
Willful and afraid
But he's st-ill a man
Still a man
Chorus
He's alone
Frail and thin
We listen but fail him
Out of time
We're running out of time
An old life on the line
Old life on the line
He lost most everyone
He ever loved
His mother, his father
His only son
His only son
He holds onto things
Stamps and coins
He h-olds onto no one
And hides his pain
Like a broken boy
Chorus
He believes in no one for too long
He needs attention, so many demands
So sentimental, a bitter man
A bitter m-an
Chorus
Old life on the line
