Nathan Lyrics

Nathan gets up in the morning
But what is it all for
Drinks his cup of coffee
Then heads for the door

Gets to work to hear the stories
What happened late last night
People wearing faces
Living plastic lives

[chorus]
But who's gonna be there
To make sure that he lives
Well who's gonna care
If he gets what he gives
Nathan's alone

Nathan drives home in the evening
To his house in the hills
Eats another TV dinner
Tries not to think about the pills

And all his friends have left him high and dry
And all his family's moved away
Now he sits and asks God why
He has to live this way

[chorus]

Yeah, who's gonna be there
Be there when he cries
Yeah, who's gonna care
Care when he dies

Nathan looks all around
There's no one to be found
He feels so lonely now
Wondering how
He ever drifted so far away
But things will be better after today
He says

[chorus]

Yeah, who's gonna be there
Be there when he cries tonight
And who's gonna care
Whether he lives or dies tonight
