Little one, who has lead you here, where heartache flows like a water hose'
All those colours, that once were hue, have changed to nothing but black and blue.

Living in the shadows of the emptiness inside you,
Down to where the dark depression never lets the sun shine on you.

Someone told you to follow them to places where you had never been,
And all those reasons that once were clear have, almost overnight, disappeared.

Living in the shadows of the emptiness inside you,
Down to where the dark depression never lets the sun shine on you.

Living in the shadows of the emptiness inside you,
Down to where the dark depression never lets the sun shine on you.

Hey you, there with the sad, sad soul, you're so young; how did you get so old'
I pray for you, that you'll see the light: the love that brightens the darkest night.

Living in the shadows of the emptiness inside you,
Down to where the dark depression never lets the sun shine on you.
