Man Of Sorrows lyrics
by Bruce Dickinson



Here, in a church, a small boy is kneelingHe prays to a god he does not know, he cannot feelAll of his sins of childhood he will rememberHe will not cry, tears he will not cryMan of sorrows, I won't see your faceMan of sorrows, you left without a traceHis small boy wonders, what was it all about?Is your journey over - has it just begun?Vision of a new world from the ashes of the old"Do what thou wilt!", he screams from his cursed soulA tortured seer, a prophet of our emptinessWondering why, wondering why...Man of sorrows, I won't see your face(I won't see your face)Man of sorrows, you left without a traceHis small boy wonders, what was it all about?Is your journey over - has it just begun?A man of sorrows, wreckedWith thoughts that dare not speak their nameTrapped inside a body, made to feel only guilt and shameHis anger all his life - "I hate myself!", he cried"Do what thou wilt!""Do what thou wilt!", he criedMan of sorrows, I won't see your face(I won't see your face)Man of sorrows, you left without a trace(left without a trace)His small boy wonders, what was it all about?Is your journey over - has it just begun?Man of sorrows, I won't see your face(I won't see your face)Man of sorrows, you left without a trace(left without a trace)His small boy wonders, what was it all about?Is your journey over - has it just begun?Has it just begun?
