The Man Who Dies Every Day

The Man Who Dies Everyday - Ultravox!

Someone stood beside me for a moment in the rain

A silhouette a cigarette

And a gesture of disdain

I felt a dark door open

Saw a sudden ghost come through

A spark leapt from my fingertip

And I knew it must be you

Ain't you the man who dies every day

You're the man who dies every day

You're the man

We never saw you walk in

We never saw you leave

You flick the ashes off

A lap on everybody's sleeve

You always play that funny

Pack of cards without an ace

And every street you ever walked

Is mapped out on your face

'Cause you're the man who dies every day

You're the man who dies every day

You're the man

You always kept a sunset behind your lonely shoulder

You never showed on photographs

And you never grew much older

You flicker like a shaky shadow

Moving like a thief

You never drop your facade

And you never seek relief

'Cause you're the man who dies every day

You're the man who dies every day

You're the man who dies every day

You're the man who dies every day

You're the man
