The Tears

The Tears were an English rock band, formed in 2004 by ex-Suede bandmates Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler. The band was a much anticipated reunion of an acclaimed songwriting couple, and music critics praised their first concerts and their debut album, Here Come The Tears. However, this was to be their only release, as they disbanded in 2006, due to Brett Anderson moving his focus towards his solo albums (and later on, reuniting Suede without Butler), and Bernard Butler retiring from performing and starting a career as a producer and songwriter (for Duffy and Kate Nash among others). more »

Eyes that stare through television
Intermission in his mind
Where there once was such ambition
Blared like a bass line when the bass line's right

Shame he's just this fallen idol
Shattered like some broken glass
Shame he's just this fallen idol
Bits of paper for his past

Years are scattered like the rain drops
Sits at the window through the empty day
Competitions in the paper
Stares in the sky
When the sky turns grey

Shame he's just this fallen idol
Shattered like some broken glass
Shame he's just this fallen idol

Shame he's just this fallen idol
Scattered on the bit of grass
Shame he's just this fallen idol
Bits of paper for his past
Bits of paper for his past
