Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drownin' in the stormy sea
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hangin' in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me?
[Verse 2]
Men are tied in chains of silence
I look on violence up, down, left, and rightl
Is there no hope of light
The peaceful hand that once caressed me
Hurts like the rest, because it's turned to stone
Talons of steel have grown
[Verse 3]
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drownin' in the stormy sea
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hangin' in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me?
[Verse 4]
Yeah
Oh, help me
[Verse 5]
Yeah
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drownin' in the stormy sea
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hangin' in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me?
[Verse 6]
See the moon, it's getting nearer
But no more clearer than the earth below
Hat do we really know
I feel the stab of pain retrunin'
Despair is burnin' in my heart again
Why don't they see the end? Oh
[Verse 7]
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drownin' in the stormy sea
Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hangin' in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me?
[Verse 8]
(No they're singin', yeah!)
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drownin' in the stormy sea
Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hangin' in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me?
