The Man Who Never Dies (Requiem For David Bowie) Lyrics

The world out there has come in here

From  I don't know where but the sky is clear

Then I heard your name and I fell through fear

Now I know your pain as it comes so near

Oh I can't cry

From these dried out eyes

Just a thousand whys

For the man who never dies

All the lows and highs

Are an unclaimed prize

For the worldly wise

And the man who never dies

In Art Deco dreams you are midnight cool

A relentless beat for a dancing fool

The boy who rose is the man who falls

A noise that echoes in these old stone walls

No you can't fly

From the old school ties

Why should the world despise

The man who never dies

Empty ellipse

Empty eclipsed

Empty your lips

No one surprised by the fat disguise

How your life defied

The man who never dies
