A Sadness Runs Through Him (Acoustic)

A Sadness Runs Through Him (Acoustic) - The Hoosiers

People are puppets held together with string

There's a beautiful sadness that runs through him

As he asked me to pray to the God

He doesn't believe in

Time and again boys are raised to be men

Impatient they start fearful at the end

But here was a man mourning tomorrow

He drank but finally drowned in his sorrow

He could not break surface tension

He looked in the wrong place for redemption

Don't look at me with those eyes

I tried to unheave the ties

Turn back the time that drew him

But he couldn't be saved

A sadness runs through him

Through him

Time and again boys are raised to be men

Impatient they start fearful at the end

But here was a man mourning tomorrow

Who drank but finally drowned in his sorrow

He could not break surface tension

He looked in the wrong place for redemption

Don't look at me with those eyes

I tried to unheave the ties

Turn back the time that drew him

But he couldn't be saved

A sadness runs through him

Through him

Don't look at me with those eyes

I tried to unheave the ties

Turn back the time that drew him

But he couldn't be saved

No he couldn't be saved

A sadness runs through him

A sadness runs through him

A sadness runs through him
