So Why So Sad

Lyrics by nicky wire, music by james dean bradfield and sean moore





Things get clear when i feel free

When whatever's next comes easily

When gentle hands give life to me

When your eyes fill with tiny tears



When i'm this still you are my life

When i'm this still you are my life



So at ease in the midnight sky

So at ease in the midnight sky



But my insides will look like war

My insides will look like war



Paralysed except through my thought



So why so sad

You live and you love

So why so sad

Dependent on above

Searching for the dead sea scrolls

So why, so why so sad



My smile as real as a hyena's

My smile as real as a hyena's



Burns an expressway to my skull

Burns an expressway to my skull



But i'll stick myself together again

Spirit so low that i no longer pretend



So why so sad

You live and you love

So why so sad

Dependent on above

Searching for the dead sea scrolls

So why, so why so sad



So why so sad

You live and you love

So why so sad

Dependent on above

Searching for the dead sea scrolls

So why, so why so sad

So why, so why so sad

So why, so why so sad

So why, so why so sad
