Verse
Make the sadness go away Come back another day
For years I've tried to teach But their eyes are empty
Empty, too, I have become For them I must die
A sad and troubled race An ungrateful troubled place
I see the sadness in their eyes
Melancholy in their cries
Devoid of all the passion
The human spirit cannot die
Look at the pain around me
This is what I cry for
Look at the pain around me
This is what I'll die for
Intro x1
Make the sadness go away Come back another day
The things I've said and done Don't matter to anyone
But still, you push me to see Something I can never be
Why am I their shattered king I don't mean anything
I see the sadness etc.
I see the sadness in their eyes Melancholy in their cries
Devoid of all the passion The human spirit cannot die Look at the etc
Solo
Chorus
I see the sadness x2
