Chorus w/Rh.Fig.2 (4x)
E5 D5
I see the sadness in their eyes melancholy in their
E5 D5
cries. Devoid of all the passion the human spirit cannot
E5 D5
die. Look at the pain around me this is what I
E5 D5
cry for. Look at the pain around me this is what I die for
Repeat Rh.Fig.1
Verse 2 w/Rh.Fig.1 (4x)
Make the sadness go away come back another day
The things I've said and done don't matter to anyone
But still you push me to see something I can never be
Why am I their shuttered king? I don't mean anything
