Black Sabbath - Loner lyrics

He's just a loner, he never says hello
A friend to no one, he's got no place to go
He don't look happy
He looks through furtive eyes
He ain't got nothing, no one to sympathize
Alright now

He hides himself away
His secrets not revealed
As life just passes by
He keeps himself concealed
A solitary man, an enigmatic child
A riddle never solved, a prisoner exiled
Alright now

I wonder if the loner can assimilate
A lifeless lived alone plays devil's advocate
Come on now

Has he ever tried to be
Happy? Reached out from inside
Someone on who he can depend
It's getting too late to recover
He won't stand a chance
And into his own hell, he'll descend

Don't descend don't descend
Don't descend don't descend

No understanding of things we already know
He has to live his life and
Just learn how to let go alright, yeah

Communication's an impossibility
His own best friend
But he's his own worst enemy
The secrets of his past locked
Deep inside his head
I wonder if he will be happy when he's dead
Come on, yeah
