Very dreary, but all too true. It reminds me a lot of Supertramp's elegiac, haunting Rudy (on Crime of the Century)

Rudy's on a train to nowhere,
halfway down the line
He don't wanna get there,
but he needs time
...
Rudy thought that all good things
comes to those that wait
But recently he could see
that it may come too late.

All through your life, all through the years
Nobody loved, nobody cared.
So dim the light, dark are your fears
Try as I might, I can't hold back the tears
How can you live without love, it's not fair?
Someone said give but I just didn't dare.
What good advice are you waiting to hear?
Hearing's alright for them that's all there
You'd better gain control now
You'd better show'em all now
You'd better make or break now
You'd better give and take now...
