Lyrics

Civilizations stare at cracked walls
Trying to think back to what was the start of it all
Circumstances so harsh and so true
Who'd have thought this could ever really happen to you?
He was a good kid in a bad town
And all his innocence isn't there to save him now
And he's never, never, never, never
Never, never, never coming home again
No, he's never, never, never, never
Never, never, never coming home again
(Always come) He's waiting at the station
(Always come) For the press to arrive
(Always come) You're making all the statements
(Always come) And planning all the lies
(Always come) And he will never talk to you
(Always come) You can never hold him now
(Always come) Policemen are approaching
This is your certain tragedy
Certain tragedy
Friday evening, he's out with some friends
Myrtle Avenue, they watch him take his last breath
And now they walk you to the station, their uniforms blue
Without the slightest realization of what they have done to you
(Always come) They tell it to the papers
(Always come) They tell it to their wives
(Always come) And doctor's write their sentence
(Always come) For daddy lost his life
(Always come) And he can never talk to you
(Always come) You can never hold him now
(Always come) Reporters are approaching
This is your certain tragedy
This is your certain tragedy
Certain tragedy
Certain tragedy
Certain tragedy, oh
Do do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do
