Dont cry child, youve got so much more to live for,
Dont cry child, youve got something I would die for,
And if it comes to the rain, just be glad youll smile again,
Cause so many don't
And so many go unnamed.
VERSE 3 (Same a Verses 1 and 2):
People push right past me shouting various claims
A preacher pushes me a side and asked to wash my sins i said no, la laa
If he made me in his image, then hes a failure too.
VERSE 4 (Same as others but drop the last 2 bars and go straight into the bridge)
And I used to need a couple of people to keep my head down
Now I need a whole lot more to keep me on the ground but oh, la laa
I gave up something and I gave it up for nothing and I am failure now.

He used to be a singer in a rock and roll band.
He would write the songs and I'd tremble at his hand but oh, la laa.
He lost poetic ethic and his songs were pathetic, and he's a failure now.
He used to be the life and soul of everyone around.
You'd never catch him looking up and never see him down but oh, la laa.
He couldn't raise a smile oh, not for a while, and he's a failure now.
Don't cry child, you've got so much more to live for.
Don't cry child, you've got something I would die for
And if he comes to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again
'Cause so many don't.
And so many go unnamed.
People push right past me shouting their exclaims.
A preacher pushes me aside and asks me what's my sins, I said no, la laa.

THE END!
He used to be a singer in a rock and roll band.
He would write the songs and I'd tremble at his hand but oh, la laa.
He lost poetic ethic and his songs were pathetic, and he's a failure now.
He used to be the life and soul of everyone around.
You'd never catch him looking up and never see him down but oh, la laa.
He couldn't raise a smile oh, not for a while, and he's a failure now.
Don't cry child, you've got so much more to live for.
Don't cry child, you've got something I would die for
And if he comes to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again
'Cause so many don't.
And so many go unnamed.
People push right past me shouting their exclaims.
A preacher pushes me aside and asks me what's my sins, I said no, la laa.
