My head full of regret,
as I sit here looking back...
A few hurtful words
said in great rash...
Over the moors and through the glen
his song can be heard...
Love has lost its innocence.
its warm, fuzzy feeling...
Remember a Hero,
for what he had to give...
Staring into the mirror
society menacingly laughing back...
He saw the destruction on the telly
and heard the screams on the radio...
To be young again, such a dream
shed your burden and sew up the seam...
Do you see that bright light on the horizon son...

when silence sets in...

the boy that was known by all...
