There walked a lonely man,
|
silent, mute, the only man
|
not knowing how, not knowing why
|
was he the sole survivor
|
|
why should he be alive,
|
breathing still while others died
|
and the only question
|
why was he the sole survivor
|
|
Sole survivor, cursed with second sight
|
Haunted saviour, cried into the night
|
Sole survivor, cursed with second sight
|
Haunted saviour, cried into the night
|
|
Wind blew across the sand
|
He stood alone and he had no plan
|
And with the last rays of the sun
|
He screamed aloud, began to run
|
|
In his tears he sees his face
|
I am the end of the human race
|
When I'm gone there'll be no trace
|
For I'm the sole survivor
|
|
Sole survivor, cursed with second sight
|
Haunted saviour, cried into the night
|
Sole survivor, cursed with second sight
|
Haunted saviour, cried into the night
|
|
One night when years had passed
|
The skies shook from a fiery blast
|
And there a starship - safe at last!
|
To come rescue this survivor
|
|
They beckoned him inside
|
but only man, he would not ride
|
instead he found a place to hide
|
for he's the sole survivor
|
|
Sole survivor, cursed with second sight
|
Haunted saviour, cried into the night
|
Sole survivor, cursed with second sight
|
Haunted saviour, cried into the night
|
