Hey, the loneliness is growing
And you're so afraid of knowing
Just what you've become
It keeps you on the run
And you're wondering how to hide the emptiness inside
Thinking all of your dreams have died
It's bound to leave you crying, crying

Chorus:
Hey, little fool
Don't you let it get you down
When you need someone to lean on
I'll be around
Break all the rules
Spread your wings and you can fly
But when flying brings you down
I'll be around

Oh, you want to be much higher
Higher than you've been before
But you're sinking to the bottom
Staring at the floor
And you're wondering how to hide the emptiness inside
Thinking all of your dreams have died
It's bound to leave you crying, crying

Repeat Chorus

And you're wondering how to hide the emptiness inside
Thinking all of your dreams have died
It's bound to leave you crying, crying

Repeat Chorus
