It's a sadness so deep the sun seems black And you don't have to try to keep the tears back No you don't have to try to keep the tears back 'Cause you couldn't cry if you wanted to You couldn't cry if you wanted to Couldn't cry if you wanted to You couldn't cry if you wanted to Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust So you stare at the ceiling And wish the world would mend Try to recall some better feeling To no good end Try to recall some better feeling To no good end Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust It's a sadness so deep the sun seems black And you don't have to try to keep the tears back No you don't have to try to keep the tears back 'Cause you couldn't cry if you wanted to You couldn't cry if you wanted to Couldn't cry if you wanted to You couldn't cry if you wanted to Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust Even your thoughts are dust
