So Alone-words & music by Frank Porter & Bernadette Glenn

Verse 1
A long time ago I knew a guy who wanted to fly wanted to fly
A long time ago I knew a guy who thought he could fly thought he could fly
A long time ago I knew a guy he was so shy never wanted to try
Chorus
He is so alone. Never had a real home. He is so alone always was so alone
Verse 2
He searched for truth, he stayed alone until he got high, until he got high
He searched his soul. It sucked him dry. But the truth made him high truth made him high
The truth was this, don't search your soul, the truth makes you cry truth make you cry
Chorus
He is so alone. Never had a real home. He is so alone always was so alone
Verse 3
Oh life is hard it's oh so hard and people don't know people don't know
They just don't know they make him cry but he want's to fly doesn't want to get high
A long time ago I knew a guy who thought he could fly but he was just stoned
Chorus
He was so alone. Never had a real home. He was so alone always was so alone
Until he found her and she was his hell!
