He was cold out alone
He was always talking in my mind tone
And oh he wasn't trying at all
To be a man in a million
A man with golden heart

But, ohh, and he looked at his life
And saw a great mind mourning the wrong time

I gave it all I lost my nerve
The life, the love, I lost my nerve
The sympathy for tragedy
It's taking control

Oh, he'd rather stay home
And take greasy thoughts from his popcorn box
And, oh, tv for company
In the wall of his own
In his bed I must agree

Yeah, it's though to see how life can be
It's just a bed you're so cold
I was trying so hard to be a man in a million
A man with a golden heart

I gave it all I lost my nerve
The life, the love, I lost my nerve
The sympathy for tragedy
It's taking control
The sympathy for tragedy

Chase your whole world down and see it so wrong
Chase your whole world down and see it so wrong
Chase your whole world down and see it so wrong
Chase your whole world down and see it so wrong
Chase your whole world down and see it so wrong
Chase your whole world down and see it so wrong
Chase your whole world down and see it so wrong
Chase your whole world down and see it so wrong

I gave it all I lost my nerve
The life, the love, I lost my nerve
The sympathy for tragedy
It's taking control

I gave it all I lost my nerve
The life, the love, I lost my nerve
The sympathy for tragedy
It's taking control
