A Sadness Runs Through Him

People are puppets held together with string
 There's a beautiful sadness that runs through him
 As he asks me to pray to the God he doesn't believe in
 Time and again boys are raised to be men
 Impatient they start, fearful they end
 But here was a man mourning tomorrow
 He drank, but finally drowned in his sorrow
 Oh, he could not break surface tension
 He looked in the wrong place for redemption
 And don't look at me with those eyes
 I tried to unheave the ties
 Turn back the tide that drew him
 He couldn't be saved
 A sadness runs through him
 Through him
 Time and again boys are raised to be men
 Impatient they start, fearful they end
 But here was a man mourning tomorrow
 Who drank, but finally drowned in his sorrow
 Oh, 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 unheave the ties
 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 unheave the ties
 Turn back the tide that drew him
 He couldn't be saved
 No he couldn't be saved
 A sadness runs through him
 A sadness runs through him
 A sadness runs through him
 A sadness runs through, a sadness runs through
 A sadness runs through him
