South side of nowhere
At the corner of hell
Is a man who's an empty shell
And he wanders and he searches
For what? I don't know
Maybe now it's just something to do
And I'm sure he has a story 
As most of us do
Of why we are the way we are
So easy to end up there
To just give up
Believe me, I've been there too

His soul's been beaten
Bruised, blackened, scarred
And healing from this, is taking too long
He sits there in the dark, asking God why
Is this a life? or is he waiting to die
Always been there for everyone else
But no one ever asks him, if he hurts
He wears this armor, and a mask
His eyes tell the truth of his darkened past

South side of nowhere
At the corner of hell
Is a man who's an empty shell
And he wanders and he searches
For what? I don't know
Maybe now it's just something to do
And I'm sure he has a story 
As most of us do
Of why we are the way we are
So easy to end up there
To just give up
Believe me, I've been there too

He'll sit there and he'll watch as the world passes by
His fear of everything has left him behind
Why was he born this way, his angels sit and cry
Is there hope? is there life outside his mind
He reaches out and there's no line to grasp
His friends have all gone and haven't looked back
No harsher lesson, could be learned
Written on their backs as they all have turned

South side of nowhere
At the corner of hell
Is a man who's an empty shell
And he wanders and he searches
For what? I don't know
Maybe now it's just something to do
And I'm sure he has a story 
As most of us do
Of why we are the way we are
So easy to end up there
To just give up
Believe me, I've been there too
