He stands alone outside the blooming yards

All is calm there on the street

The shadows pass him hung right over

The pain on his face he knew he'd keep

His hair is long and it's twisted it's twisted

Around the smile spread cheek to cheek

Another child another soul grabs a hold

To the metal that will end his misery

One by one

We stand beneath the sun

With arms high open wide

Two by two

He's getting you

To watch him as he leaves this life he knew

How much anger is set aside

As each one of us cries

Red light they come and they take him away

In the thoughts he'll be better some day

Tied tight can't see out your eyes

That he's sure to shine sure to shine

In this deep dark f**ked up played out reality show

So who's the man with the plan

Eating up all that he can

Don't you see don't you see

One by one

We stand beneath the sun

With arms high open wide

Two by two

He's getting you

To watch him as he leaves this life he knew

Do you ever think that things are meant to be

I know we all have our reasons why

And now the power of one human being

Has gone and changed so many lives

One by one

We stand beneath the sun

With arms high open wide

Two by two

He's getting you

To watch him as he leaves this life he kne

One by one

We start to come undone

Two by two

He's getting through to you

One by one we stand we stand we stand

Over over you
