T´s all so temporary
Life´s work, don´t play that way
Life´s more than cash and carry
All your guns, to your grave

Is it too much to carry?
Is it too much to ask you why?

I have a sinking feeling I know why
I have a sinking feeling I know
Born to an insensitive fool
You´ve been damned by
You´re scared
When a strong man cries
Is when a strong man dies

Raised up in a town that´s 80 proof
Shotgun shells under every roof -- every jail
Didn´t learn a lot from public schools
All our books went off to wars -- they could sell

Is it too much to carry?
Is it too much to run and hide?

And what´s too much to bury?
Is it too much to ask you why?

I have a sinking feeling I know why
I have a sinking feeling I know
Swore you an impossible dream
You´ve been damned by

You swear

That when a strong man cries
Is when a strong man dies

You´re scared
That when a strong man cries
Is when a strong man dies

But a strong man cries

A strong man cries

Just look into this strong man´s eyes
Look into a strong man´s eyes

Look into a strong man´s eyes

Raised up in a town that´s 80 proof
Shotgun shells under every roof
Bloody hell
