Solitary Man

Don’t you know you don’t count
They won’t hear the argument you mount
For just to look at you in your cause
Will not gain from anyone applause

So you look in and not out
Keeping to yourself there is no hurt about
And they will wonder why you keep to yourself
A solitary man with solitary wealth.
