Lyrics

Once there was a newborn prince
Who bathed in vats of riches
All the town was his to burn
And all the land a playground

And on the day they brought him home
They held him to the mirror
And he saw his own reflection
And he fell into his eyes

And at that very moment
He made himself a promise
That others came beneath the one
And that he belonged to him

Unaware
You're living solo
You're living solo
Oh so low
Little man
You're living solo
You're living solo
Oh so low

So he set out for the forest
Where he read a book from time to time
And he laughed at all the scholars
And he bathed himself in fancy wine

And he played with shapely bodies
And he played with docile minds
And he played with crystal clarity
All others step aside

And he woke with many lovers
And he woke with fewer loves
Till came home to his mirror
To his only one true love

Unaware
You're living solo
You're living solo
Oh so low
Little man
You're living solo
You're living solo
Oh so low

And it's not so unreal
That they'll take it away
Take it away
Is it too late to feel
Just don't take it away
Take it all away

And so the prince he journeyed on
From conquest on to conflict
His hair grew thin
His face grew long
Still never making contact

Until the day returning home
He stood before his mirror
And he saw his own reflection
And he fell into his eyes

And he questioned all he lived for
And he questioned other ways
And he shattered lies his mirror told
With fists of grand malaise

Unaware
You're living solo
You're living solo
Oh so low
Little man
You're living solo
You're living solo
Oh so low
Not a word
You're living solo
You're living solo
Oh so low
