style council - a man of great promise lyrics
i bought the paper yesterday and i saw the obituary
and i read of how you died in pain –
well i just couldn’t understand it
if i could of changed that, then lord knows i’d do it now
but there is no going back –
and what’s done is done forever
but you were always chained and shackled by the dirt –
of every small town inst-tution and every big town flirt
and i think of what you might have been,
a man of such great promise
oh but, you seem to forget the dream –
and the more you saw you hated
but let’s not talk of blame, for what is only natural
like a moth going to a flame –
you had a dangerous p-ssion
but you were always chained and shackled by the dirt –
of every small town inst-tution and every big town flirt
all the things that you might have been – but who am i to say?
still i wonder –
if it’s the cold earth you prefer to lay –
if it’s the cold earth – you prefer to stay
