Pink Cream 69 - Man of Sorrow

He will leave through the door in which he came
Head bowed in shame, he gets the blame
Though the fight for his innocence was strong
His unsung song was sung so wrong

And so he hides, in the heat of the city
Staring out the open window, he just cries
As days pass by, he’s not eager to greet them
But his hope’s the only tonic that still drives

The days are lonely and the nights are desolate
Hanging out upon the wire
Aiming to escape from this pretend Babylon
But it’s much too late, another life he must create

He is a man of sorrow
Unoccupied, dissatisfied – woah
Living alone with his bottle and his doom
In the abyss of eternal desire

Travelled down the roads signalled “danger up ahead”
They lead him right in to disaster
Now the mortal soul isn’t going anywhere
Cuz he’s much too late and now oblivion is all that awaits

He is a man of sorrow
Unoccupied, dissatisfied – woah
Living alone with his bottle and his doom
In the abyss of eternal desire

He’s alone in the dark
Life is drifting on and on
Pieces are scattered everywhere
There’s no absolution

Yes, he’s much too late
Like very man
He must bear his own fate

He is a man of sorrow
Unoccupied, dissatisfied – woah
Living alone with his bottle and his doom
But it’s much too late

He is a man of sorrow
Unoccupied, dissatisfied – woah
Living alone with his bottle and his doom
In the abyss of eternal desire

He is a man of sorrow
Unoccupied, dissatisfied – woah
Living alone with his bottle and his doom
Now you know, he’s a man of sorrow

He will leave through the door in which he came
And so he hides in the heart of the city
Staring out the open window, he just cries
