Out of silence, black as night I remove myself from the fight Outward joy in sadness I must flee Leave me, lonely I shall be CHORUS: Orchids bright lights surrounding you Spotlights flaming flowers through I'm a grieving grinning famous star I'm much too high to raise the bar not too far Back to the front, soldier of fun I've walked these forests, thrown my gun These boots may have holes, but these boots are my own From my point of view, they are just fine They built a cage without a key What a pretty zoo they made for me I'm the headliner, a one-man show I'd run away, but where would I go?
