It's sung by a man and it's sort of slow and melancholy. It was in the last minute of the January 2nd episode of Guiding Light.Here's a link:

The song doesn't kick in until the very last minute or so of the song.
I have searched various soap opera boards and every search engine imaginable. So far, these are the lyrics that I have been able to make out:
"I am a lonely train
ready to run away
I'm gonna disappear"
"they roll their eyes
cutting me down to size"
"everyone's waiting to see what i'm gonna do
maybe i can't come through"
"they said if i bend i'd break...
...it's so hard to stand under that weight
it's hard to be 8 feet tall"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
