Elegy

The Forgotten

Elegy


Ignored and hated by many, he can't stand the very sight of himself. 
Believing only that people wish him harm, 
while all the time there is a sympathetic eye from an admiring lady. 
As the years pass, she slowly gains his trust, 
but not without incident. 
Being of a passive and loving nature, 
she helps to transform his anger with regression. 
Eventually his fears are changed into a positive belief 
in the goodness we all possess.

[Verse]
Ignored by the many, adored by the chosen few 
Friends he hasn't any, just his own point of view

[Bridge]
There stands a lady inbetween the shadows 
Waiting patiently for you 
Holding out her hand she whispers 
Together we'll pull through
She transforms his anger 
Helps him wipe away the tears

[Chorus]
I'll be there, standing next to you 
I'll be there I will pray, I will pray for you 
'Cos you're one of the forgotten children

[Outro]
One of the, one of those forgotten children 
One of the forgotten friends 
Cast away those sins forgiven 
Fight on, fight on to the end 
You've gotta fight on
