Solitary Shell Lyrics

Solitary Shell lyrics

He seemed no different from the rest
Just a healthy normal boy
His mama
always did her best
And he was daddy's pride and joy

He learned to
walk and talk on time
But never cared much to be held
And steadily he
would decline
Into his solitary shell

As a boy he was considered
somewhat odd
Kept to himself most of the time
He would daydream in and
out of his own world
But in every other way he was fine

He's a Monday
morning lunatic
Disturbed from time to time
Lost within himself
In his
solitary shell

A temporary catatonic
Madman on occasion
When will
he break out
Of his solitary shell

He struggled to get through his
day
He was helplessly behind
He poured himself onto the page
Writing
for hours at a time

As a man he was a danger to himself
Fearful and
sad most of the time
He was drifting in and out of sanity
But in every
other way he was fine

He's a Monday morning lunatic
Disturbed from
time to time
Lost within himself
In his solitary shell

A momentary
maniac
With casual delusions
When will he be let out
Of his solitary
shell
