Tell me why the blind man cries Oh, he sheds a tear because he just can't hear the children singing How he used to fantasize Of standing next to some children who are doing singing Ah! And the shoulders get colder and colder And his tears And his tears fall on deaf ears Ooh! Falling apart At the seams and no-one seems to care You can't cry forever Eileen wouldn't want you to, I swear Now he's just an empty shell Oh, since Eileen died the other side seems so appealing Compared to this living hell Oh, she haunts his sleep, his wounds too deep for any healing Ah! With his arteries starting to harden She is gone She is gone and it's all wrong Falling apart At the seams and no-one seems to care You can't cry forever Eileen would want you to, I swear So there.
