People are puppets,
Held together with string.
There's a beautiful sadness that runs through him,
As he asked me to pray to the God he doesn't believe in.

Time and again boys race to be men,
Impatient they start, fearful they end.
But here was a man mourning tomorrow.
He drank, but finally drowned in his sorrow.

He could not break surface tension.
He looked in the wrong place for redemption.

Don't look at me with those eyes;
I tried to anaesthetize,
Turn back the tide that drew him.
But he couldn't be saved,
A sadness runs through him, through him.

Time and again boys race to be men,
Impatient they start, fearful they end,
But here was a man mourning tomorrow,
He drank, but finally drowned in his sorrow

He could not break surface tension.
He looked in the wrong place for redemption.

Don't look at me with those eyes;
I tried to anaesthetize;
Turn back the tide that drew him.
But he couldn't be saved:
A sadness runs through him, through him.

Don't look...Don't look...Don't...Don't
Don't look at me with those eyes;
I tried to anaesthetize:
Turn back the time that drew him.
But he couldn't be saved, no,
He couldn't be saved:
Sadness runs through him,
Sadness runs through him,
Sadness runs through him,
Sadness runs through him,
Sadness runs through him
