lyrics

the saddest song of all time
was playing in his mind he tried

to hide away but on it played
it filled his head with thoughts that say

the words of hate that plainly state
the negative fate of human race

the melody played in endless waves
the notes were laid into their graves

and in his mind the guitars cried
a river million miles wide

and on it played
a hundred days
a thousand ways
and on the song it played

the saddest song of all time was
playing in his mind he tried

to run away but on it played
the song it stayed a thousand days

and in his dreams the piano’s weep
a million violins he keeps

under the bed they wail and scream
the soundtrack of your broken dream

the drums were gone
the rhymes were wrong
it was a very simple song
you knew it well

you never tell
the reason why your crying eyes

it would not be denied
the verse was 30 years long
and going strong
the world was going wrong

and on it played
a thousand days
a million ways
and on the song it played
