In the blackne
ss of the nigh
t
I seem to wand
er endlessly
with a hope bu
rning out deep
inside
I'm a fugitive
, community ha
s driven me ou
t
For this bad,
bad world I'm
beginning to d
oubt
I'm alone and
there is no on
e by my side
In the blackne
ss of the nigh
t
I see a shadow
blasting by
from the heels
of an old sol
dier boy.
There's no com
promising
and his eyes a
re black as th
e sky
For this bad,
bad world he i
s going to die
.
He's alone and
there is no o
ne by his side
In the blackne
ss of the nigh
t
I see a sparkl
e of a star
from the sweet
silver tear o
f a child
and she's clut
ching at a pho
tograph of lon
g, long ago
When her paren
ts were happy
she was too yo
ung to know
she's alone an
d there is no
one by her sid
e
I'm alone and
there is no on
e by my side
In the blackne
ss of the nigh
t
I seem to wand
er endlessly
with a hope bu
rning out deep
inside
I'm a fugitive
, community ha
s driven me ou
t
For this bad,
bad world I'm
beginning to d
oubt
I'm alone and
there is no on
e by my side
