You're On Your Own Now

You are a child of the stars

You are an orphan of fate

You are a child of the stars

You are an orphan of fate

You're a bullet locked in the chamber

You were born too late

Morning comes like a dog to steal your spirit away

Morning comes like a dog to steal your spirit away

The night swallows the sun and devours the day

Yes and you

You're on your own now

Oh and you you're on your own now

You were left to a world where love's a memory

You were left to a world where love's a memory

You stare alone into the face of misery

No one to keep you from harm no one to hear you cry

No one to keep you from harm no one to hear you cry

No one to notice if you live or if you die

Yes and you you're on your own now

Oh and you you're on your own now

And you scrape and beg for your bread

You have to fight everyday

Scrape and beg for your bread

You have to fight everyday

The hawks forever circling you like their prey

You are the last hope of Man

You are the conscience of shame

You are the last hope of Man

You are the conscience of shame

If you don't live till tomorrow who is there to blame

If you don't live till tomorrow who is there to blame

Yes and you you're on your own now

Oh and you you're on your own now

And you you're on your own now

Oh and you you're on your own now

I've been on that mountain for so long for so long

I've been on that mountain for so long

I've been on that mountain for so long for so long

I don't know how I'm going to come down

I don't know how I'm going to come down

I've been on that mountain for so long

For so long

I've been on that mountain for so long

I've been on that mountain for so long

For so long

I don't know how I'm going to come down

I don't know how I'm going to come down

I don't know how I'm going to come down

I don't know how I'm going to come down

I don't know how I'm going to come down

I don't know how I'm going to come down
