He's had enough

He couldn't take anymore

He found a place

in his mind and slammed the door

No matter how they tried

They couldn't understand

They washed and dressed him

Fed him by hand

Yeah! I've left the world behind

I'm safe here in my mind

I'm free to speak with my own kind

This is my life, this is my life

I'll decide not you

Withdrawn he sat there

Staring into a space

No sign of life

Would flicker on his face

Until one day he smiled

It seemed as though with pride

The wind kissed him goodbye

And then he died

Yeah! I've left the world behind

I'm safe here in my mind

free I'm to speak with my own kind

This is my life, this is my life

I'll decide not you

Keep the world with all its sin

It's not fit for livin' in

Yeah! I will start again

It can take forever, and ever, whatever

whenever, but I'll still win.

Solo

How many like him,

Are they still

Who to us all

Seem to have lost the will

They lie in thousands

Lank and lost

Is knowledge worth this bitter cost.

Yeah! I've left the world behind

I'm safe here in my mind

I'm free to speak with my own kind

This is my life, this is my life

I'll decide not you

Keep the world with all its sin

It's not fit for livin' in

Solo

Beyond the realms of death.
