 Bm/E    Bm/A
He had enough
Bm/G                 Em  F#
He couldn't take anymore
Bm/E          Bm/A
He'd found a place
        Bm/G                 Em F#
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

Chorus:
Bm                               A
Yeah, I've left the world behind
I am safe here in my mind
I'm free to speak with my own kind
Bm
This is my life, this is my life,
                   A F#
I'll decide not you

Withdrawn he'd sit there
Stare blank into 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

Chorus

  F#
Keep the world with all it's sin
E
It's not fit for livin' in

Bm                      A
Yeah! I will start again
Bm
It can take forever and ever and ever and ever
               A
But I shall win

How many like him Are there still
But to us all Seem to have lost the will
They lie in thousands Plagued and lost
Is nothing worth this bitter cost

Chorus

Keep the world with all its sin
It's not fit for living in

Beyond the realms of death
