Man of Sorrows (Hombre Triste)
Bruce Dickinson
Man of Sorrows (Sad Man)
Here in a church
A child is kneeling
He prays to a god
Without knowing him - he doesn't feel him
All the sins
Of his childhood he always remembers
He won't cry, he doesn't want to cry
Sad man, your face I didn't see
Sad man, without seeing you left
The child asks, what happened
Has the journey ended or has it just begun
Vision of a new world
From the pages of yesterday
Do your will - cry from his tormented black soul
Tortured wise prophet of our emptiness
He wonders why?
Sad man, your face I didn't see
Sad man, without seeing you left
The child asks, what happened
Has the journey ended or has it just begun
The man is in anguish
His mind full of evil
Trapped in a body - made to feel pure shame
Life of resentment, self-hatred, tears
Do your will, do your will
Sad man, your face I didn't see
Sad man, without seeing you left
The child asks, what happened
Has the journey ended or has it just begun
