Elegy

[Music: Henk van der Laars & Dirk Bruinenberg]
[Lyrics & vocal melody: Ian Parry]
Ignored and hated by many, he cant stand the very sight of himself.
Believing only that people wish him harm,
while all the time there is a sympathetic eye from an admiring lady.
As the years pass, she slowly gains his trust,
but not without incident.
Being of a passive and loving nature,
she helps to transform his anger with regression.
Eventually his fears are changed into a positive belief
in the goodness we all possess.
[Verse]
Ignored by the many, adored by the chosen few
Friends he hasnt any, just his own point of view
[Bridge]
There stands a lady inbetween the shadows
Waiting patiently for you
Holding out her hand she whispers
Together well pull through
She transforms his anger
Helps him wipe away the tears
[Chorus]
Ill be there, standing next to you
Ill be there I will pray, I will pray for you
Cos youre one of the forgotten children
[Outro]
One of the, one of those forgotten children
One of the forgotten friends
Cast away those sins forgiven
Fight on, fight on to the end
Youve gotta fight on
