You left some hope instilled in me
That I never should give up on anything
I know this made you proud of me
So this song remains for those who hurt like me

The man in black. He rides alone to a final destination unknown
The man in black He rides alone: he's moving on
Not coming home

I used to be the fearless one
Living each day like death would never come
Now I feel his cold breath on my neck
He's watching my steps and telling me that I could be next

Before I used to take these wings and I'd fly so high
(I'd fly so high. I tried)
Now I live n regret never coming down to say goodbye
Oh why can't I?

The man in black. He rides alone to a final destination unknown
The man in black. He rides alone: he's moving on
I can't follow

I used to be the fearless one
Living each day like death would never come
Now I feel his cold breath on my neck
He's watching my steps and telling me that I could be next

So make way for the man in black
So make way. He's never coming back

I am so lost at sea
Ryan, shine the light for me
I'm sinking, I can't swim
I need you here to pull me in
I am so lost at sea
Ryan, shine your light for me
I'm sinking, I can't swim
I miss you brother
You will never dim
