Sole Survivor

There walked a lonely man,

silent, mute, the only man

not knowing how, not knowing why

was he the sole survivor

why should he be alive,

breathing still while others died

and the only question

why was he the sole survivor

Sole survivor, cursed with second sight

Haunted saviour, cried into the night

Sole survivor, cursed with second sight

Haunted saviour, cried into the night

Wind blew across the sand

He stood alone and he had no plan

And with the last rays of the sun

He screamed aloud, began to run

In his tears he sees his face

I am the end of the human race

When I'm gone there'll be no trace

For I'm the sole survivor

Sole survivor, cursed with second sight

Haunted saviour, cried into the night

Sole survivor, cursed with second sight

Haunted saviour, cried into the night

One night when years had passed

The skies shook from a fiery blast

And there a starship - safe at last!

To come rescue this survivor

They beckoned him inside

but only man, he would not ride

instead he found a place to hide

for he's the sole survivor

Sole survivor, cursed with second sight

Haunted saviour, cried into the night

Sole survivor, cursed with second sight

Haunted saviour, cried into the night
