Give him what he needs
Let him see what he sees
Let me feel how he feels

Leave him out to sea
It's alright by me
Let him stay in bed

Until he is fed up

You know he can't go on

His life has felt so long
Already to go
You know

He's so lonely

Sick to the teeth

Drunk on belief
Meaning to clean
But armed with disease

I'll surmise for free
The boy who feels kept
Could be out of his depth


But you know he can't go on
His life has felt so long

Already he's old
Yes you know
He's so lonely


"What became of him?"
"Less than you could ever imagine"


Sick to the teeth
Drunk on belief

Meaning to clean
But armed with disease
I'll surmise for free

The boy who feels kept
Could be out of his depth


But you know he can't go on
With a life that feels so wrong
Already he's old

Yes you know
He's so lonely


Give him what he needs
Let him see what he sees
Let him feel how he's gonna feel

Leave him out to sea
It's alright by me
Let him stay in bed

Until he is fed up

You know he can't go on

Yes his life has felt so long
He's ready, but oh
His soul is so lonely


Stick to yr guns


He's ready, but oh
His soul
His soul is so lonely


Stick to yr guns
