Lyrics
Sorrowing Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sorrowing man, look how worn you've become
You once were lord of the barren sea
There's blood on our hands, in this perfect madness,
You're living on borrowed time
Oh how you have lost your way
Oh how you have lost your way
There's no sympathy for we don't know the cure,
Cause what you've got, well it runs too pure
But you've lived and breathed more than any man i know
But you're not done, oh, at least, i hope
Oh how you have lost your way
Oh how you have lost your way
In this life what we have made together
Oh how you have lost your way
Oh how you have lost your way
Oh how you have lost your way
