The Boy Beneath by The Cog Is Dead Lyrics
Many miles underneath the city
In a cave so dark and gritty
You can find a boy who's hiding from the sunshine
He was mocked and was mistreated
So the lonely boy retreated
Down into a cave where he could spend all his time
Fortress of Solitude. Cold was his attitude
Only wanting to be left alone
Thoughts of humanity felt like insanity
When compared to his peaceful home
But in his heart he knew this life would never do
Never stepping out into the light
All we can do for him - offer encouragement
Say it’s alright
Please Rahym Suhrees!
The sun is still shining
Come outside and see
The darkness is brightning
Even though the world is cruel
There's still a place for decent ones like you
And there are others like us too!
So the boy beneath came forward
He was nervous and was unsure
After all the world had treated him unkindly
Were they really caring people?
Or were all their words deceitful?
He just didn't know if he could trust them blindly
Still he was longing for life with a little more
Everyone needs a human touch
Even the quiet ones down hidden from the sun
Still need warm affection just as much
Rahym, we promise you if you just come on through...
You can still return here anytime
And with a leap of faith, this boy then made his way
Into the light
Please Rahym Suhrees!
The sun is still shining
Come outside and see
The darkness is brightning
Even though the world is cruel
There’s still a place for decent ones like you
And there are others like us too!
[Instrumental]
Please Rahym Suhrees!

Thoughts of humanity felt like insanity
When compared to his peaceful home
But in his heart he knew this life would never do
Never stepping out into the light
