Marc Almond - Tragedy lyrics

rate me

Why did you have to go?

Why did you have to be you?

And do the things you always do

Each time it hurts inside

The things you say

The games you play

Makes me feel like my heart had died

Just like my world fell in around me

Tears found me

Abandoned and they drowned me

Life is often a roller coaster ride

You slide

You hit the bottom hard

You have to run away and hide

But you gotta sit up

Shake yourself down

Start your life again

And see the funny side

Here's a little song

To help the pain along

Come on and sing now

Tragedy

Take a look and see

I'm laughing in the face of adversity

And like the need to sing a song

I need a little hurt to get along

Tragedy

Take a look and be

A survivor in the face of adversity

And like the need to sing a song

I need a little hurt to make me strong

I've tasted love

Love comes and goes

I've cried the tears

The tears have flowed

I felt the world had dragged me down

Not a single friend around

I needed time

I needed help

I had to find the strength myself

Sometimes I walked the path of regret

The sun came out shining

But I still got wet

I could have had a drink or two

A pill to numb the blues

But I hung on for the ride in time

To see the funny side

And now I sing

Tragedy

Take a look at me

I'm laughing in the face of adversity

And like the need to sing a song

I need a little hurt to get along

Tragedy

Take a look and be

A survivor in the face of adversity

And like the need to sing a song

I need a little hurt to make me strong
