Too Many Tears Lyrics - Into The Woods - The Call

Too Many Tears Lyrics 

Now as you know 

It's your time on this earth 

From a rock in the cradle 

To a ride in the hearse 

We keep moving upward 

Toward everything free 

Kindly look downward 

The more you'll see me 

I've had six years of luck 

I've had six on the line 

And I've poured myself out 

Like an old bitter wine 

I've seen much of nothin' 

And nothin's the gain 

Thrown on my backside 

I don't know my name 

There's too many tears 

Too many tears 

Too many people 

In too many years 

Some tears of laughter 

Some tears of pain 

Break like a fever 

And fall like the rain 

Points on the map, tears line the way 

I've seen all your pretty things 

And it won't stop the pain 

There's been much confusion 

With too many hurt 

I feel my words dyin' 

Down in the dirt 

I've had lies in my head 

There been lies in my heart 

I've been tortured by this riddle 

And I don't know how to stop 

With a lightning flash and thunder, boys 

And my mind starts to click 

So do what you must do 

And you best do it quick 

Doctor, Oh Doctor 

My world's in you hands 

I feel like I'm dyin' 

And boy I need a plan 

Sister, sweet sister 

There's blood on my lips 

Why does it feel like 

This room's doing flips 

The rains come on time 

It's clear I can tell 

I've seen your work everywhere 

And there's mercy in hell 

With a lightning flash and thunder, boys 

And again it all comes down 

Do you see your life merging 

With these poor souls on the ground
