"Forgotten Boy" lyrics

"Forgotten Boy"

Words send you reeling
Words on the phone
Your ties to the bond are all gone
The day's way too long
The pain is all healing
The sound is a drone
Stabbed in the back with a knife
The pain lingers on

Mirror shine, see it haunt
You can't stand your reflection at all
Water turns into wine
Left your charm after stayin' on your mind

Forgotten Boy
Don't understand anymore
Where is the charm
That held your hand
Oh

The nerves you are feeling
Will leave you alone
It's all got your needing now
It's time you withdraw
No use concealing
It's too near the bone
A man does his best
To rely on nothing at all

Water flows, wheels will turn
Changing all from the stem to the stern
You will learn, how to bend
Trust in time you'll be jilted again

Forgotten Boy
Don't understand anymore
It is the charm
That held your hand
Oh
