Album: Brimstone Blues (2002)

Tragedy Man


The look on your face is giving you away
And any pretense you might have
Can't lie behind complacent eyes
Cus I can see what it meant

Lost your life, lost your soul
Lost everything that you ever had owned
Down the hole with nothing close to anything
That'd put meat on the bone

YOU WON'T LIVE TO TELL THE TALE
ABOUT A MAN WHO DIED

SO SAD AND TRAGIC MAN
SO DAMN BEFORE YOUR TIME

YOU'RE A TRAGEDY MAN

Now the feelings growing like an embryo
Heavy labour with fear
Feels like heaven has shut the door on everyone

And damnation is here
Man you'd live again if it would help you
And live your life like a saint
But damn, it's over and no one's gonna help you
In that firey lake

YOU WON'T LIVE TO TELL THE TALE
ABOUT A MAN WHO DIED

SO SAD AND TRAGIC MAN
SO DAMN BEFORE YOUR TIME

YOU'RE A TRAGEDY MAN
