Sitting on a fence by himself,
Sits a boy, with a few tears welling up,
Just wanting to be released,
Just waiting for him to say,
You can cry now.

Sitting on a fence by himself,
Sits a boy, with one tear on his check,
Just wanting to have a hug,
Just waiting for someone to say,
It will be alright soon.

Sitting on a fence by himself,
Sits a man, with no fears,
Or so he says – to everyone who asks,
Just wanting to be that man he always wanted to be,
Just waiting for someone to say, enough is enough,
It should have been past,

Just sitting on a fence by himself,
Just now sits his son, with the weight of the world,
Just sitting on a fence by himself,
Just sits a boy, that no one wants to care.
