He has every reason for confidence
As far as the world goes
He's sure that he can make it on his own
He thinks that achievement is happiness
But beyond what he shows
Deep inside his life is lived alone

I can hear a voice cry out so loud it hurts my ears
Coming from this one who's drowning in his tears
(Not knowing)

(chorus)

Every bone grows old, every face gets wrinkled
Every mind grows tired after awhile
But every heart that knows the love that God shows
Will walk into the sunset with a smile

It's hard for him to see sometimes
The bigger picture
When a smaller one's been painted in his head
He pretends to be happy
On the outside
When deep inside he's dying to be fed

I can hear a voice cry out so loud it hurts my ears
Coming from this one who's drowning in his fears
(Not knowing)

(chorus)
